Hero
Marketing hero sections: centred, split, search, form, video, stats, screenshot and more; the centred hero takes a switchable backdrop.

# Brok UI block: Hero Profile (`hero-profile`)
A personal / portfolio bio hero — a profile avatar, headline, short bio, primary and secondary actions and a social-links row. Composes the avatar, button and social-links primitives.
Brok UI is a Laravel Blade registry. `ui:add` copies this block into the app as plain Blade the app owns; it composes installed `<brok:*>` primitives and semantic design tokens.
## Install
```bash
php artisan ui:add blocks/hero-profile
```
## Render it
```blade
<x-blocks.hero-profile />
```
## Props
- `avatar-src` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Avatar image URL; null shows the fallback initials.
- `avatar-fallback` (string, default `RA`) — Initials shown when no avatar image is set.
- `name` (string, default `Rusty Adler`) — Accessible name used for the avatar's alt text.
- `heading` (string, default `Software engineer, adventurer, and tech entrepreneur.`) — Short headline shown under the avatar.
- `bio` (string, default `I'm Rusty, a software engineer turned founder, helping organizations unlock their potential through thoughtful technology solutions.`) — Supporting bio paragraph.
- `primary-cta` (string, default `Get in touch`) — Primary button label; falsy hides the primary button.
- `primary-href` (string, default `#`) — Primary button destination.
- `secondary-cta` (string, default `View work`) — Secondary button label; falsy hides the secondary button.
- `secondary-href` (string, default `#`) — Secondary button destination.
- `socials` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Rows of {platform, label, href} rendered as social-links icons; null falls back to a default 5-platform sample.
## Use when
- Opening a personal site, portfolio, or about page with a profile avatar, a short headline and bio, and a row of social-platform links.
- Wanting primary and secondary actions (e.g. contact, view work) beside the bio rather than a marketing CTA pair.
## Avoid when
- Building a product or company marketing page rather than a personal/portfolio one; use hero-centered or hero-split instead.
## Rules
- Render the installed block with `<x-blocks.hero-profile />` and pass data through its props; edit the copied file only for structural changes.
- Keep the semantic design tokens (`bg-background`, `text-muted-foreground`); never swap in raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes and the logical (start/end) spacing so the markup still mirrors under `dir="rtl"`.
## Links
- Docs: https://brokui.dev/blocks/hero-profile
- Registry JSON (files, props, contract): https://brokui.dev/r/open/blocks/hero-profile.json
Working in Claude Code, Cursor or Codex? Give the agent the whole registry through the MCP server or the Brok UI skill.
Guidance
Use when
- Opening a personal site, portfolio, or about page with a profile avatar, a short headline and bio, and a row of social-platform links.
- Wanting primary and secondary actions (e.g. contact, view work) beside the bio rather than a marketing CTA pair.
Avoid when
- Building a product or company marketing page rather than a personal/portfolio one; use hero-centered or hero-split instead.
Anti-patterns
- Do not replace semantic props with conflicting utility classes.
- Do not remove labels, focus styles, or state attributes.
- Anatomy
Usage
Render the block as a component, passing data where useful:
<x-blocks.hero-profile />
Built from primitives
This block composes installed <brok:*> primitives and semantic design
tokens only — it does not reimplement any primitive. Re-theme it (light, dark, admin, customer) by
editing CSS variables; flip the preview to RTL to confirm it mirrors.
