# `ShadcnUI.Components.Foundation.Badge`
[🔗](https://github.com/pcharbon70/shadcn_ui/blob/main/lib/shadcn_ui/components/foundation/badge.ex#L1)

Compact passive labels with closed shadcn-style variants.

Badge renders one noninteractive `span`. Its text may communicate status, but
selection, links, dismissal, lifecycle, and other behavior belong to the
surrounding application markup.

# `badge`

Renders a passive inline badge.

Use an application-owned link or button when the content must navigate,
activate, select, or dismiss. Badge deliberately rejects interactive globals
instead of making a `span` imitate a control.
