That little red bubble with a number on messenger apps—it demands attention and drives engagement. This React avatar adds a notification count badge positioned at top-right with -right-2 -top-2, using bg-red-500 for urgency and text-white for contrast. Built with shadcn/ui and Radix UI, the badge includes border-background separation and font-medium text-xs for readability. Perfect for chat applications showing unread message counts, inbox interfaces, notification centers, or any scenario where quantifying pending items motivates user action.
