## Social57: Community Photo Wall

A community gallery laid out as a masonry of customer photographs at mixed heights, each captioned with what is happening and the practice it came from.

Free block

This block is free. No license or account is required: install it with the CLI and use it in unlimited projects.

### Installation

**Radix flavor**

bashCopy

```
npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r/social57"
```

**Base UI flavor**

bashCopy

```
npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r-base/social57"
```

This installs the block to `components/beste/block/social57.tsx` plus the `badge23` and `button21` components it uses for the eyebrow and the closing action.

### Quick start

The installed file exports `social57Demo` alongside the block: the exact props behind the preview above. Spread it to get a working gallery in one line.

tsxCopy

```
import { Social57, social57Demo } from "@/components/beste/block/social57";

export default function GalleryPage() {
  return <Social57 {...social57Demo} />;
}
```

Then replace the demo with your own props. Written out, a trimmed setup looks like this:

tsxCopy

```
import { Social57 } from "@/components/beste/block/social57";

export default function GalleryPage() {
  return (
    <Social57
      badge={{ label: "In the wild" }}
      heading="Photographs from rooms we did not decorate"
      description="Sent in by practices, published with their permission."
      frames={[
        {
          src: "/wall/go-live.jpg",
          alt: "A clinician smiling in a bright clinic",
          caption: "Go-live morning, and nothing on fire",
          place: "Bramble Health, Bristol",
          tall: true,
        },
        {
          src: "/wall/handover.jpg",
          alt: "Two colleagues talking in a corridor",
          caption: "The handover that used to be a phone call",
          place: "Kingsway Clinic, Leeds",
        },
      ]}
      closing="Have one worth sending? We publish with a credit and never without asking."
      button={{ label: "Send us a photograph", href: "/contact" }}
    />
  );
}
```

### Behavior notes

* The layout is CSS multi-column (`columns-1 sm:columns-2 lg:columns-3`) rather than a grid, which is what lets frames of different heights pack without leaving gaps. Each figure carries `break-inside-avoid` so a photograph and its caption never split across a column.
* Because columns fill top to bottom rather than left to right, the reading order down the page is not the array order once the layout goes multi-column. Do not rely on the order for meaning.
* `tall` switches a frame from `h-64` to `h-96`. The demo balances three tall and three short frames, which is what keeps the three columns roughly level at the bottom.
* Six frames is the count the layout is tuned for: at `lg` that is exactly two per column.
* Frames are real `figure` and `figcaption` pairs, so captions stay associated with their images.
* `caption` and `place` are separate, so the caption can describe the moment while the credit stays factual. Both are required, since publishing a customer photograph without a credit is what the closing note promises not to do.
* Frames are not links. This is a wall rather than a directory.
