title: Button
description: Displays a button or a component that looks like a button.
featured: true
component: true
---
<ComponentPreview name="button-demo" peekCode wide />
## Usage
```tsx
import { Button } from '@/components/ui/button'
```
```tsx
<Button type="outline">Button</Button>
```
_It is likely that the `type` prop will be changed to `variant` in the future._
## Link
You can use the `buttonVariants` helper to create a link that looks like a button.
```tsx
import { buttonVariants } from '@/components/ui/button'
```
```tsx
<Link className={buttonVariants({ variant: 'outline' })}>Click here</Link>
```
Alternatively, you can set the `asChild` parameter and nest the link component.
```tsx
<Button asChild>
<Link href="/login">Login</Link>
</Button>
```
## Examples
### Sizes
Use the `size` prop to determine the size of the button.
<ComponentPreview name="button-sizes" />
### Types
These are all the different `type` variations.
#### Primary
Used for data insertion actions, confirming purchases, strong positive actions.
<ComponentPreview name="button-demo" />
#### Default
Used for opening dialogs, navigating to pages, and other non CRUD actions.
This `type` will probably be the most used button type.
It will probably be changed to be the default type in future.
<ComponentPreview name="button-default" />
#### Secondary
Can be used for signaling a data or config change, but not as serious as a primary button.
For destructive or side effect actions, use the `destructive` or `warning` type.
<ComponentPreview name="button-secondary" />
#### Warning
Used for actions that might have a side effect, but not as serious as a destructive action.
<ComponentPreview name="button-warning" />
#### Destructive (currently `danger`)
Used for actions that will have a serious destructive side effect, like deleting data.
prop `type` will probably be changed to `destructive` in the future.
<ComponentPreview name="button-destructive" />
#### Outline
Used for secondary actions, or actions that are not as important as the primary action.
<ComponentPreview name="button-outline" />
#### Ghost (currently `text`)
Used for actions that are not as important as the primary action, or for actions that are not as important as the primary action.
prop `type` will probably be changed to `ghost` in the future.
<ComponentPreview name="button-ghost" />
#### Link
Used for actions that are not as important as the primary action, or for actions that are not as important as the primary action.
<ComponentPreview name="button-link" />
### Only an Icon
Displaying only an Icon in a button.
<Admonition type="note" title="This feature requires more support" className="mt-3">
We should update the button component to support this use case better.
</Admonition>
<ComponentPreview name="button-icon" />
### As Child
Supports slot behavior with `asChild` prop.
<ComponentPreview name="button-as-child" />
## Accessibility
[Keyboard focus](../accessibility#focus-management) is automatically handled:
- Enabled buttons default to `tabIndex={0}` (keyboard accessible)
- Disabled buttons default to `tabIndex={-1}` (removed from tab order)
- You can still override with an explicit `tabIndex` prop when needed
You therefore don't need to manually set `tabIndex`, as Button handles it automatically based on its `disabled` state.
