Buttons are used for **actions**, like in forms, while textual hyperlinks are used for **destinations**, or moving from one page to another.
#### Buttons
```html
<button class="m-1 btn" type="button">Close</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-primary" type="button">Comment</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-danger" type="button">Rename repository</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-blue" type="button">Sign up for free</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-purple" type="button">Try if for free</button>
<br>

<button class="m-1 btn btn-primary hover" type="button">Comment</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-danger hover" type="button">Rename repository</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-blue hover" type="button">Sign up for free</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-purple hover" type="button">Try if for free</button>
<br>

<button class="m-1 btn btn-blue selected" type="button">Sign up for free</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-purple selected" type="button">Try if for free</button>
<br>
<button class="m-1 btn disabled" type="button">Close</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-primary disabled" type="button">Comment</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-danger disabled" type="button">Rename repository</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-blue disabled" type="button">Sign up for free</button>
<button class="m-1 btn btn-purple disabled" type="button">Try if for free</button>
```
#### Default buttons
Use the standard—yet classy—`.btn` for form actions and primary page actions. These are used extensively around the site.
When using a `<button>` element, **always specify a `type`**. When using a `<a>` element, **always add `role="button"` for accessibility**.
```html
<button class="btn" type="button">Button button</button>
<a class="btn" href="#url" role="button">Link button</a>
```
You can find them in two sizes: the default `.btn` and the smaller `.btn-sm`.
```html
<button class="btn" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn btn-sm" type="button">Small button</button>
```
#### Primary
Primary buttons are green and are used to indicate the *primary* action on a page. When you need your buttons to stand out, use `.btn.btn-primary`. You can use it with both button sizes—just add `.btn-primary`.
```html
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button">Primary button</button>
<button class="btn btn-sm btn-primary" type="button">Small primary button</button>
```
#### Danger
Danger buttons are red. They help reiterate that the intended action is important or potentially dangerous (e.g., deleting a repo or transferring ownership). Similar to the primary buttons, just add `.btn-danger`.
```html
<button class="btn btn-danger" type="button">Danger button</button>
<button class="btn btn-sm btn-danger" type="button">Small danger button</button>
```
#### Outline
Outline buttons downplay an action as they appear like boxy links. Just add `.btn-outline` and go.
```html
<button class="btn btn-outline" type="button">Outline button</button>
<button class="btn btn-sm btn-outline" type="button">Outline button</button>
```
#### Disabled state
Disable `<button>` elements with the boolean `disabled` attribute and `<a>` elements with the `.disabled` class.
```html
<button class="btn" type="button" disabled>Disabled button</button>
<a class="btn disabled" href="#url" role="button">Disabled button</a>
```
Similar styles are applied to primary, danger, and outline buttons:
```html
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" disabled>Disabled button</button>
<a class="btn btn-primary disabled" href="#url" role="button">Disabled button</a>
```
```html
<button class="btn btn-danger" type="button" disabled>Disabled button</button>
<a class="btn btn-danger disabled" href="#url" role="button">Disabled button</a>
```
```html
<button class="btn btn-outline" type="button" disabled>Disabled button</button>
<a class="btn btn-outline disabled" href="#url" role="button">Disabled button</a>
```
#### Block buttons
Make any button full-width by adding `.btn-block`. It adds `width: 100%;`, changes the `display` from `inline-block` to `block`, and centers the button text.
```html
<p><button class="btn btn-block" type="button">Block button</button></p>
<p><button class="btn btn-sm btn-block" type="button">Small block button</button></p>
```
#### With counts
You can easily append a count to a **small button**. Add the `.with-count` class to the `.btn-sm` and then add the `.social-count` after the button.
**Be sure to clear the float added by the additional class.**
```html
<div class="clearfix">
<a class="btn btn-sm btn-with-count" href="#url" role="button">
<%= octicon "eye" %>
Watch
</a>
<a class="social-count" href="#url">6</a>
</div>
```
You can also use the [counter](../../product/components/labels) component within buttons:
```html
<button class="btn" type="button">
Button
<span class="Counter">12</span>
</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button">
Button
<span class="Counter">12</span>
</button>
<button class="btn btn-danger" type="button">
Button
<span class="Counter">12</span>
</button>
<button class="btn btn-outline" type="button">
Button
<span class="Counter">12</span>
</button>
```
#### Button groups
Have a hankering for a series of buttons that are attached to one another? Wrap them in a `.BtnGroup` and the buttons will be rounded and spaced automatically.
```html
<div class="BtnGroup mr-2">
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button</button>
</div>
<div class="BtnGroup mr-2">
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item btn-outline" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item btn-outline" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item btn-outline" type="button">Button</button>
</div>
<div class="BtnGroup">
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item btn-sm" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item btn-sm" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item btn-sm" type="button">Button</button>
</div>
```
Add `.BtnGroup-form` to `<form>`s within `.BtnGroup`s for proper spacing and rounded corners.
```html
<div class="BtnGroup">
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button</button>
<form class="BtnGroup-form">
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button in a form</button>
</form>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button</button>
<button class="btn BtnGroup-item" type="button">Button</button>
</div>
```
#### Hidden text button
Use `.hidden-text-expander` to indicate and toggle hidden text.
```html
<span class="hidden-text-expander">
<button type="button" class="ellipsis-expander" aria-expanded="false">&hellip;</button>
</span>
```
You can also make the expander appear inline by adding `.inline`.
