$ git clone https://github.com/carpetscheme/lightspeed.git

and then enable it in your config.toml:

Options

footer-menu

Set a field in extra with a key of footer_links:

footer_links = [
    {url = "$BASE_URL/about", name = "About"},
    {url = "$BASE_URL/rss.xml", name = "RSS"},
    {url = "https://google.com", name = "Google"},
]

If you put $BASE_URL in a url, it will automatically be replaced by the actual site URL.
