Examples

Variants

Use the variant attribute to set the button's variant.

<sl-button variant="brand">Brand</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="success">Success</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="neutral">Neutral</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="warning">Warning</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="danger">Danger</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton variant="brand">Brand</SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="success">Success</SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="neutral">Neutral</SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="warning">Warning</SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="danger">Danger</SlButton>
  </>
);

Sizes

Use the size attribute to change a button's size.

<sl-button size="small">Small</sl-button>
<sl-button size="medium">Medium</sl-button>
<sl-button size="large">Large</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton size="small">Small</SlButton>
    <SlButton size="medium">Medium</SlButton>
    <SlButton size="large">Large</SlButton>
  </>
);

Outline Buttons

Use the outline attribute to draw outlined buttons with transparent backgrounds.

<sl-button variant="brand" outline>Brand</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="success" outline>Success</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="neutral" outline>Neutral</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="warning" outline>Warning</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="danger" outline>Danger</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton variant="brand" outline>
      Brand
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="success" outline>
      Success
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="neutral" outline>
      Neutral
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="warning" outline>
      Warning
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="danger" outline>
      Danger
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

Pill Buttons

Use the pill attribute to give buttons rounded edges.

<sl-button size="small" pill>Small</sl-button>
<sl-button size="medium" pill>Medium</sl-button>
<sl-button size="large" pill>Large</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton size="small" pill>
      Small
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton size="medium" pill>
      Medium
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton size="large" pill>
      Large
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

Text Buttons

Use the text variant to create text buttons that share the same size as regular buttons but don't have backgrounds or borders.

<sl-button variant="text" size="small">Text</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="text" size="medium">Text</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="text" size="large">Text</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton variant="text" size="small">
      Text
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="text" size="medium">
      Text
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="text" size="large">
      Text
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

It's often helpful to have a button that works like a link. This is possible by setting the href attribute, which will make the component render an <a> under the hood. This gives you all the default link behavior the browser provides (e.g. CMD/CTRL/SHIFT + CLICK) and exposes the target and download attributes.

<sl-button href="https://example.com/">Link</sl-button>
<sl-button href="https://example.com/" target="_blank">New Window</sl-button>
<sl-button href="/assets/images/wordmark.svg" download="shoelace.svg">Download</sl-button>
<sl-button href="https://example.com/" disabled>Disabled</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton href="https://example.com/">Link</SlButton>
    <SlButton href="https://example.com/" target="_blank">
      New Window
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton href="/assets/images/wordmark.svg" download="shoelace.svg">
      Download
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton href="https://example.com/" disabled>
      Disabled
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

:::tip When a target is set, the link will receive rel="noreferrer noopener" for security reasons. :::

Setting a Custom Width

As expected, buttons can be given a custom width by setting the width attribute. This is useful for making buttons span the full width of their container on smaller screens.

<sl-button size="small" style="width: 100%; margin-bottom: 1rem;">Small</sl-button>
<sl-button size="medium" style="width: 100%; margin-bottom: 1rem;">Medium</sl-button>
<sl-button size="large" style="width: 100%;">Large</sl-button>

{% raw %}

import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton size="small" style={{ width: '100%', marginBottom: '1rem' }}>
      Small
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton size="medium" style={{ width: '100%', marginBottom: '1rem' }}>
      Medium
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton size="large" style={{ width: '100%' }}>
      Large
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

{% endraw %}

Prefix and Suffix Icons

Use the prefix and suffix slots to add icons.

<sl-button size="small">

  Open
</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';
import SlIcon from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/icon';

const App = () => (

    <SlButton size="small">
      <SlIcon slot="prefix" name="gear"></SlIcon>
      Settings
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton size="small">

      Refresh

      <SlIcon slot="suffix" name="box-arrow-up-right"></SlIcon>
      Open

    <SlButton size="large">
      <SlIcon slot="prefix" name="gear"></SlIcon>
      Settings
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton size="large">
      <SlIcon slot="suffix" name="arrow-counterclockwise"></SlIcon>
      Refresh
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton size="large">

      <SlIcon slot="suffix" name="box-arrow-up-right"></SlIcon>
      Open
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

Caret

Use the caret attribute to add a dropdown indicator when a button will trigger a dropdown, menu, or popover.

<sl-button size="small" caret>Small</sl-button>
<sl-button size="medium" caret>Medium</sl-button>
<sl-button size="large" caret>Large</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton size="small" caret>
      Small
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton size="medium" caret>
      Medium
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton size="large" caret>
      Large
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

Loading

Use the loading attribute to make a button busy. The width will remain the same as before, preventing adjacent elements from moving around. Clicks will be suppressed until the loading state is removed.

<sl-button variant="brand" loading>Brand</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="success" loading>Success</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="neutral" loading>Neutral</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="warning" loading>Warning</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="danger" loading>Danger</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton variant="brand" loading>
      Brand
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="success" loading>
      Success
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="neutral" loading>
      Neutral
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="warning" loading>
      Warning
    </SlButton>
    <SlButton variant="danger" loading>
      Danger
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

Disabled

Use the disabled attribute to disable a button.

<sl-button variant="brand" disabled>Brand</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="success" disabled>Success</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="neutral" disabled>Neutral</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="warning" disabled>Warning</sl-button>
<sl-button variant="danger" disabled>Danger</sl-button>
import SlButton from '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/react/button';

const App = () => (
  <>
    <SlButton variant="brand" disabled>
      Brand
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton variant="success" disabled>
      Success
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton variant="neutral" disabled>
      Neutral
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton variant="warning" disabled>
      Warning
    </SlButton>

    <SlButton variant="danger" disabled>
      Danger
    </SlButton>
  </>
);

Styling Buttons

This example demonstrates how to style buttons using a custom class. This is the recommended approach if you need to add additional variations. To customize an existing variation, modify the selector to target the button's variant attribute instead of a class (e.g. sl-button[variant="brand"]).

<sl-button class="pink">Pink Button</sl-button>

<style>
  sl-button.pink::part(base) {
    border-radius: 6px;
    border: solid 2px;
    background-color: #ff1493;
    border-top-color: #ff7ac1;
    border-left-color: #ff7ac1;
    border-bottom-color: #ad005c;
    border-right-color: #ad005c;
    color: white;
    font-size: 1.125rem;
    box-shadow: 0 2px 10px #0002;
    transition: var(--wa-transition-normal) all;
  }

  sl-button.pink::part(base):hover {
    transform: scale(1.05);
  }

  sl-button.pink::part(base):active {
    border-top-color: #ad005c;
    border-right-color: #ff7ac1;
    border-bottom-color: #ff7ac1;
    border-left-color: #ad005c;
    transform: translateY(1px);
  }

  sl-button.pink::part(base):focus-visible {
    outline: dashed 2px deeppink;
    outline-offset: 4px;
  }
</style>
