# Bootstrap 5 Badges Documentation and examples for badges, the Bootstrap for AdminKit small count and labeling component. ## Example Badges scale to match the size of the immediate parent element by using relative font sizing and `em` units. As of v5, badges no longer have focus or hover styles for links. ```html

``` ## Buttons Badges can be used as part of links or buttons to provide a counter. ```html ``` Note that depending on how they are used, badges may be confusing for users of screen readers and similar assistive technologies. While the styling of badges provides a visual cue as to their purpose, these users are presented with only the content of the badge. Depending on the specific situation, these badges may seem like random additional words or numbers at the end of a sentence, link, or button. Unless the context is clear (as with the "Notifications" example, where it is understood that the "4" is the number of notifications), consider including additional context with a visually hidden piece of additional text. ## Positioned Use utilities to modify a `.badge` and position it in the corner of a link or button. ```html ``` You can also replace the `.badge` class with a few more utilities without a count for a more generic indicator. ```html ``` ## Background colors Use our background utility classes to quickly change the appearance of a badge. ```html Primary Secondary Success Danger Warning Info Light Dark ``` ## Pill badges Use the `.rounded-pill` utility class to make badges more rounded with a larger `border-radius`. ```html Primary Secondary Success Danger Warning Info Light Dark ``` --- Canonical HTML page: https://adminkit.io/bootstrap/docs/components/badge/ Site overview for agents: https://adminkit.io/llms.txt (expanded: https://adminkit.io/llms-full.txt) · Documentation: https://adminkit.io/bootstrap/docs/ · Questions: support@adminkit.io
