BUG: In Light mode — footer stays dark and text is barely visible #142

Description

@AribaRazi

Description

The footer doesn't respond to light mode at all. When you switch to light mode, the footer background stays a very dark navy/black, and all the text inside it (brand name, tagline, column headings, links, copyright line) is either invisible or extremely low contrast against that dark background.

Affected content:

  • "Evidence Protector" brand name and logo in the footer
  • Tagline — "Automated Digital Forensics & Integrity suite designed for modern Security Operation Centers. Built for high-stakes log analysis."
  • Column headings (Technologies, Resources)
  • Links — FastAPI Backend, Delta Engine 2.0, Regex Heuristics, Documentation, API Reference, Security Policy
  • Copyright line and Terms of Service text at the bottom
  • Social/contact icons at the bottom right

To reproduce

  1. Open the landing page
  2. Click the light mode toggle in the navbar
  3. Scroll to the footer
  4. Background is still dark navy and text is barely readable

Expected:-

Footer background becomes light and all text is clearly readable in light mode.

Likely cause

Same root issue as the Forensic Pipeline Deep Dive section — footer colors are hardcoded and not using theme-aware CSS variables, so the light mode class has no effect on it.
