What is a Button component?

A Button component is a trigger element that initiates an action or event within a user interface. It serves as a vital interactive element that users can click or tap to perform a specific function, such as submitting a form, navigating to another page, or triggering a modal window.

When to use Button?

Use a Button when you need to provide users with a clear and actionable way to perform tasks or invoke actions. This can include scenarios like form submissions, starting an application process, or executing commands in response to user interaction.

When not to use Button?

Avoid using a Button for non-interactive elements or when the action is not user-initiated. For example, do not use a Button for purely informational purposes or to display static content, as this can lead to confusion and hinder the user experience.

What is the anatomy of a Button?

The anatomy of a Button typically includes the following components: a label (text or icon) that describes the action, a background to enhance visibility, padding for touch targets, and hover or active states that provide feedback to the user. Proper styling and accessibility features should also be incorporated to ensure usability across different devices and by all users.
