FAQ

What does variant secondary change on the link?

variant="secondary" keeps the muted secondary fill and secondary-foreground text on the link. The variant adds a hover background when the badge is an anchor, 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.
