Guidance
Compact label and metadataCommunicate concise status, count, or metadata.
Use when
- Use for compact labels, counts, and concise metadata that support scanning. Do not force badges or short labels to carry complex explanations that need sentence-level context.
Avoid when
- Avoid using badge as a default simply because it is available in the library. Choose it only when its interaction cost, visibility, and behavior match the job to be done.
- Task length
- micro
- Interaction cost
- low
- Interruptiveness
- none
- Input precision
- none
- Mobile / touch risk
- low
- Accessibility risk
- medium
- Needs background context
- No
- Comparison needed
- No
Preferred alternatives
- Visible explanatory text
Anti-patterns
- Encoding complex meaning in a badge alone

Accessibility & localization
data-slot
Keyboard focus-visible
Localized labels
- Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
- Uses semantic HTML and a stable
data-slotattribute for styling/scripting hooks. - Focus-visible rings use the
ringtoken so keyboard focus is always visible. - Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
- Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
- Labels go through
__()and the component uses logical properties (ms-*,text-start,start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.
Source
The exact, editable file ui:add writes
into your app — copy it or own the whole thing. Previews
render this same code; there are no preview-only components.
