Communication buttons with badges and follower counts for social and messaging interfaces
Communication requires visibility—message counts and follower metrics drive engagement decisions. This React component combines shadcn/ui's Button, ButtonGroup, Badge, and ButtonGroupText components with Lucide React's MailIcon and UserPlusIcon for communication controls with overlay badges and inline metrics. Built on Radix UI with destructive variant badges for urgent message counts, variant switching between outline (unfollowed) and default (following) states, and ButtonGroupText for follower metrics, the pattern delivers social communication buttons with comprehensive context. Perfect for social platforms showing unread messages and follower counts, community forums displaying new activity, messaging applications indicating pending conversations, or any interface where communication metrics should guide user attention—badges signal urgency, text displays social proof, toggle states communicate relationship status.
