1. Overview

The badge is a small-shaped component indicating a status on a related item (such as avatar, navigation menu, list item, or anywhere else in an app where some active indication is required).

Objectives

The badge component should be associated with other parent components in order to indicate status change. It should be customizable, allowing changes to its variant and displayed value.

Acceptance criteria

  1. Have a badge that shows a value
  2. Have a badge that shows an icon
  3. The badge should adapt its size to fit the content
  4. The badge should have a variant indicating its importance e.g. info, warning, or danger
  5. The badge should have an optional outline
  6. The badge should provide a quick way to set its shape
  7. The badge should be positionable in relation to another element (e.g. in the top-right corner of an avatar)

</igc-avatar>
  • Story 5: As a developer, I want to set the badge background, text, and outline colors.

End-user stories:

  • Story 1: As an end-user, I want to be able to notice and determine the status of an element based on the badge attached to it and its color and value.

3. Functionality
