Button is a foundational action component for UI flows.
It supports default, secondary, and outline variants and reads visual values from --ui-* CSS tokens so consuming apps can override brand styling without modifying component code.
When to use
- Triggering primary and secondary actions.
- Linking to next-step interactions in docs and dashboards.
- Providing a theme-consistent action component across multiple apps.
Behavior notes
- Supports polymorphic rendering with
asChild. - Uses semantic theme variables for color and border.
- Designed for external consumers to override tokens safely.
Example
<Button variant='outline'>Learn more</Button>

API
constButton:ForwardRefExoticComponent<Omit<ButtonProps,"ref"> &RefAttributes<HTMLButtonElement>>
Defined in: components/button/button.tsx:64
Reusable button component for BranditDev products.
Uses semantic theme tokens so consumers can override visual design by
setting design tokens such as --primary, --background, and --radius-md.
Uses forwardRef for React 18 compatibility (e.g. Base UI Popover render prop). Remove forwardRef when upgrading to React 19.
Param
Button properties including size, variant, and polymorphic rendering.
Returns
A styled button element.
