Icons make outlined badges scannable without adding visual weight. This React badge combines shadcn/ui's outline variant with a Lucide React icon positioned left of text for instant category recognition. Built with mr-1 spacing and size-3 icon scaling, the pattern balances icon and text while maintaining the subtle outline aesthetic. Perfect for categorized tags with symbols (Star for featured, Tag for labels, Folder for categories), metadata types needing quick identification, or any secondary indicator benefiting from iconic reinforcement—users process icons faster than text alone while keeping the interface light.
