# Badge [component-header:sl-badge] Badges are used to draw attention and display statuses or counts. ```html preview Badge ``` ```jsx react import { SlBadge } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react'; const App = () => Badge; ``` ## Examples ### Variants Set the `variant` attribute to change the badge's variant. ```html preview Primary Success Neutral Warning Danger ``` ```jsx react import { SlBadge } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react'; const App = () => ( <> Primary Success Neutral Warning Danger ); ``` ### Pill Badges Use the `pill` attribute to give badges rounded edges. ```html preview Primary Success Neutral Warning Danger ``` ```jsx react import { SlBadge } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react'; const App = () => ( <> Primary Success Neutral Warning Danger ); ``` ### Pulsating Badges Use the `pulse` attribute to draw attention to the badge with a subtle animation. ```html preview
1 1 1 1 1
``` ```jsx react import { SlBadge } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react'; const css = ` .badge-pulse sl-badge:not(:last-of-type) { margin-right: 1rem; } `; const App = () => ( <>
1 1 1 1 1
); ``` ### With Buttons One of the most common use cases for badges is attaching them to buttons. To make this easier, badges will be automatically positioned at the top-right when they're a child of a button. ```html preview Requests 30 Warnings 8 Errors 6 ``` ```jsx react import { SlBadge, SlButton } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react'; const App = () => ( <> Requests 30 Warnings 8 Errors 6 ); ``` ### With Menu Items When including badges in menu items, use the `suffix` slot to make sure they're aligned correctly. ```html preview Messages Comments 4 Replies 12 ``` ```jsx react import { SlBadge, SlButton, SlMenu, SlMenuItem, SlMenuLabel } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react'; const App = () => ( Messages Comments 4 Replies 12 ); ``` [component-metadata:sl-badge]
