# Badges

Documentation and examples for badges, our small count and labeling component.

## Example

Badges can be used as part of links or buttons to provide a counter.

    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default">
      <span>Unread messages</span>
      <span class="badge badge-primary">24</span>
    </button>
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">
      <span>Notifications</span>
      <span class="badge badge-md badge-circle badge-floating badge-danger border-white">4</span>
    </button>

## Contextual variations

Add any of the below mentioned modifier classes to change the appearance of a badge.

Default Primary Secondary Info Success Danger Warning

    <span class="badge badge-default">Default</span>

    <span class="badge badge-primary">Primary</span>

    <span class="badge badge-secondary">Secondary</span>

    <span class="badge badge-info">Info</span>

    <span class="badge badge-success">Success</span>

    <span class="badge badge-danger">Danger</span>

    <span class="badge badge-warning">Warning</span>

## Pill badges

Use the `.badge-pill` modifier class to make badges more rounded (with a larger `border-radius` and additional horizontal `padding`). Useful if you miss the badges from v3.

Using the contextual `.badge-*` classes on an `<a>` element quickly provide actionable badges with hover and focus states.
