Measured entry
efferd-footer-5
footergradient-glowmotion on file
A layered sticky footer with a soft gradient field, animated link columns, social icon controls, and reduced-motion handling. It ships as a shadcn registry block and imports a local Logo and Button, plus Motion and Lucide icons; the Button brings the project’s shadcn utility and Radix conventions with it.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 1m 26s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/components/ui/button.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A distinctive fit for content-heavy product sites, and its responsive mounting and reduced-motion branch are solid foundations. It is not ready to ship unchanged: fix the unnamed social controls and contrast first. It also needs a shadcn-style setup, because the bare project cannot resolve the Button utility import.
Use it if
- You want a reveal-style footer that stays visually anchored while the page reaches its end.
- Your site has several dense navigation groups and can replace the supplied fintech copy and placeholder links.
- Your React app already uses shadcn aliases, theme tokens, and button conventions.
Skip it if
- You need an accessible drop-in without remediation, since the social icon buttons lack accessible names and several text colors fail contrast checks.
- You want a compact, content-driven footer instead of a fixed layered composition with a tall reserved region.
- You are minimizing client-side animation dependencies or cannot justify Motion for a footer.
- Your project does not use shadcn-style aliases and you do not want to recreate its local primitives and theme utilities.
Install
| Declared dependencies | motion, radix-ui |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add the source alias, a compatible Button primitive, the local class-merging utility it expects, the Logo component, and matching Tailwind theme tokens and utilities. Install Motion, Radix UI, and Lucide React, then add accessible labels to the social controls and tune muted colors for contrast.
