--------------------------------------------------------
By statistics, there are high number of users that scroll down through footers
and it is a good practice to include as much as detailing as possible yet
keeping a minimal design. I have added a footer design(footer-design.png) based
on what I read and additional features that need to be included. I have tried
to keep it as minimalistic as possible. What're your thoughts? [~aashnajena]

> Improve Footer on Camel Website

> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: website
> Reporter: Aashna Jena

> I have some reservations about the website footer. On the mobile view, the
> footer takes up almost the entire height of my device because the Overview,
> Community and About columns do not fit into one row. Secondly, on the desktop
> view, the header navigation is fixed at the top, so I can view the header
> menu while I'm at the footer of the page. Having same links visible on the
> header menu and footer doesn't make sense to me (Download, Community, Blog
> etc). I do see a lot of websites having menu links on the footer, but they
> don't have a fixed navbar.
> Suggestions : I looked up best practices for footers. I think we can reduce
> the number of links we display on the footer, especially the ones overlapping
> with header menu. We can also add some things (from what I read up on best
> practices) - form for subscribing to the mailing list, sitemap link, contact
> information, link to report a bug on the website, privacy policy/ terms of
> use (if we have) and maybe a subscription for the blog, since we have quite
> informative and regular blog posts. I also really like the idea of having a
> row of social media icons in the footer, which a lot of websites do. This
> will give us the freedom of adding many more icons than on the header menu.
