Footer

The bottom section of a webpage, typically containing navigation links, copyright information, and secondary content like contact details or social links. Footers provide a sense of closure and catch visitors who've scrolled through all content. Design footers to be useful—include key links users might need after reading your page.

Absolute Positioning

A CSS layout method that removes an element from the normal document flow and positions it relative to its nearest positioned ancestor. This technique is useful for overlays, badges, and decorative elements that need precise placement regardless of surrounding content. Use sparingly, as absolutely positioned elements don't affect the layout of other elements and can cause overlap issues on different screen sizes.

Constraint

Rules that define how an element should resize or reposition when its parent container changes size. Constraints control whether elements stretch, stay fixed, or maintain proportional relationships during responsive resizing. Setting constraints correctly in Framer ensures your layouts adapt elegantly across different screen sizes.

Container

A parent element that holds and organizes child elements, defining boundaries for layout and positioning. Containers with maximum widths prevent content from becoming too wide on large screens while allowing full-width backgrounds. Framer's containers support auto layout, padding, and responsive size controls for flexible layouts.

Fixed Position

A positioning method that anchors elements relative to the browser viewport, keeping them visible during scrolling. Fixed elements are useful for sticky navigation, floating action buttons, and persistent calls to action. Use fixed positioning sparingly to avoid blocking content and reducing usable space.
