Footer¶
Render the semantic footer landmark for closing information for a page or section.
| Import | from hedron import Footer |
| Distribution | hedron |
| Backend activity | No |
| Normal render mode | RenderMode.FRAGMENT |
Live demo¶
The preview is a local docs simulation (not a running Hedron server). Interactive demos show a “Simulated HTMX” trace when applicable.
Basic use¶
from hedron import Footer, Heading, Text
component = Footer(Heading('Support', level=2), Text('Contact the platform team'))
Compose under Page for full documents, or return from a fragment route for HTMX swaps.
How it works¶
Footer emits a native <footer>, preserving semantic navigation instead of using a generic div. Children may be passed individually or as one non-string sequence. Landmark helpers are real typed classes with an allowlisted attribute set.
This component's core behavior is server-rendered HTML and does not require a browser runtime. The preview is ordinary semantic HTML, so keyboard, form, link, and disclosure behavior comes from the platform.
Constructor and parameters¶
Footer(*nodes, children=None, class_=None, id=None, lang=None, dir=None, role=None, aria=None, data=None, ...)
| Parameter | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
nodes |
NodeLike |
Positional content belonging to this semantic region. |
children |
NodeLike | sequence | None |
Keyword alternative; combines with positional nodes. |
class_ |
str | None |
Optional authored class name. |
id |
str | None |
Stable fragment or target identifier. |
lang / dir / role / title / tabindex / aria / data / hidden |
allowlisted |
Safe HTML attributes; hostile roles like presentation / none are rejected. |
Composition and backend behavior¶
Keep Footer at the smallest semantic boundary. Fragment routes should return only
the replaced region and preserve stable target IDs across success, validation, empty,
loading, and error responses.
Footer is primarily presentational; keep any mutation on an explicit action or component route.
Accessibility¶
Use explicit link text and keep legal or support navigation grouped meaningfully.
Security¶
Escaping and SafeUrl / TrustedHtml are framework concerns; authorization and data
exposure remain application code. Redact secrets before rendering.
Common mistakes¶
- A nested section footer is not the page-wide contentinfo landmark.
- Do not copy docs-preview JavaScript into an application server.
