Badge

Displays notifications, statuses, or counts, providing users with contextual information

How they help

Badges enhance a UI by providing visual cues that improve user interaction and experience. They draw attention to important information, such as notifications or updates ensuring users don't miss critical details.

As status indicators, they convey the state of items like availability, priority, or completion, allowing users to understand various elements immediately. Badges also aid in categorizing and labeling content, facilitating easier navigation and helping users find relevant information efficiently.
