Walkthrough

The footer component refactor removes URL-based external link detection and replaces it with explicit external boolean flags in the data structure. Footer URLs are migrated from relative paths to absolute Prisma domain URLs. Component-level changes adjust anchor attributes (target, rel) based on the explicit external flag.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Footer Component Logic packages/ui/src/components/footer.tsx	Removed isAbsoluteUrl import and changed external link detection from URL absoluteness to explicit external boolean property. Updated dropdown link type to accept optional external?: boolean. Adjusted anchor target attribute to _blank only when external, and rel attribute to "noopener noreferrer" only for external links.
Footer Data URLs packages/ui/src/data/footer.ts	Migrated footer column and link URLs from relative paths (e.g., /product, /docs, /contact, /pricing, /terms) to absolute https://prisma.io/... URLs across multiple entries.

5-147: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Mark off-domain footer links as explicit external.

After moving to explicit external flags in packages/ui/src/components/footer.tsx, these footer entries still have no external: true, so they won’t be treated as external links anymore (prisma-status.com, datadx.io, trust.prisma.io).
