# ContactHero

> Contact page hero with headline and supporting copy.

- Status: stable
- Group: marketing
- Page: https://www.digitaltableteur.com/design-system/components/contact-hero
- Contract: https://www.digitaltableteur.com/contracts/v1/ContactHero.contract.json

## When to use

ContactHero opens a contact page with a headline and supporting copy. compact is on by default (60vh, 70vh from desktop); pass compact={false} for the taller 80vh hero. background defaults to minimal. Copy arrives via props (title, subtitle), so route-level i18n stays in the page component. No app route renders ContactHero today: the contact page uses ContactPageContentEditorial, which owns its own heading, so check that before reaching for this.

## When not to use

The contract records no forbidden uses.

## Look-alikes

The contract names no look-alike with a deciding condition.
