# Footer Minimal

> Compact site footer for products that don't need a sitemap: brand and tagline beside one row of links with hover underlines and an optional badge, then a bottom bar with copyright and legal links, a live status pill, a language select, a light/system/dark switch with a sliding thumb and arrow-key support, social icons and back to top. Each optional piece hides when unset.

## Install

One-time setup (needs a subscription):

1. Add the registry to the project's `components.json`: `{"@assembli":{"url":"https://www.assembli.design/r/{name}.json","headers":{"Authorization":"Bearer ${ASSEMBLI_API_KEY}"}}}` (merge into `"registries"`).
2. Put an API key from https://www.assembli.design/account in `.env.local` as `ASSEMBLI_API_KEY=asm_…`.

Then install with the shadcn CLI (writes `components/footer-minimal/footer-minimal.tsx` and installs dependencies):

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add @assembli/footer-minimal
```

Registry item JSON: https://www.assembli.design/r/footer-minimal.json (send `Authorization: Bearer <api key>`)
