Badge with Link (Destructive) for React

A destructive badge whose label Badge is a link that underlines on hover. The address in the file is #link.

The word Badge is a link in the destructive color. Hovering underlines it. The href in this file is #link, not a real page.

Use it when an error count should open its log. An on and off filter is a Button, not this link. In React, Base UI moves the badge styles onto the anchor so Tab can focus it.

FAQ

What does variant destructive change on the link?

variant="destructive" keeps text-destructive and bg-destructive/10 on the link. Hover deepens that tint, and this file adds hover:underline.

Can I reach the link from the keyboard?

Yes. It is an a with an href, so Tab focuses it and Enter follows it. Screen readers announce a link.

Should a toggle filter be this badge?

No. This pattern goes to another page. An on and off filter is a Button or a toggle.

Why doesn't the link text wrap?

The badge is whitespace-nowrap, so the label stays one line. Keep it to a word or two.

Can this link use another variant?

Yes. Set variant on the same Badge. The values are default, secondary, outline, ghost, link, destructive, info, success and warning.
