Bootstrap documentation

Badges are small count and labeling components, which are used to add extra information to an interface element. You can use them to draw users' attention to a new element, notify about unread messages or provide any kind of additional info.

## Default markup

The default badges are square and come in the basic set of colors.

    <span class="badge bg-blue">blue</span>
    <span class="badge bg-azure">azure</span>
    <span class="badge bg-indigo">indigo</span>
    <span class="badge bg-purple">purple</span>
    <span class="badge bg-pink">pink</span>
    <span class="badge bg-red">red</span>
    <span class="badge bg-orange">orange</span>
    <span class="badge bg-yellow">yellow</span>
    <span class="badge bg-lime">lime</span>
    <span class="badge bg-green">green</span>
    <span class="badge bg-teal">teal</span>
    <span class="badge bg-cyan">cyan</span>

## Pill badges

Use the `.bagde-pill` class if you want to create a badge with rounded corners. Its width will adjust to the label text.

    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-blue">1</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-azure">2</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-indigo">3</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-purple">4</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-pink">5</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-red">6</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-orange">7</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-yellow">8</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-lime">9</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-green">10</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-teal">11</span>
    <span class="badge badge-pill bg-cyan">12</span>

    <span class="badge bg-azure-lt">azure</span>
    <span class="badge bg-indigo-lt">indigo</span>
    <span class="badge bg-purple-lt">purple</span>
    <span class="badge bg-pink-lt">pink</span>
    <span class="badge bg-red-lt">red</span>
    <span class="badge bg-orange-lt">orange</span>
    <span class="badge bg-yellow-lt">yellow</span>
    <span class="badge bg-lime-lt">lime</span>
    <span class="badge bg-green-lt">green</span>
    <span class="badge bg-teal-lt">teal</span>
    <span class="badge bg-cyan-lt">cyan</span>

## Links

Place the badge within an `<a>` element if you want it to perform the function of a link and make it clickable.

    <a href="#" class="badge bg-blue">blue</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-azure">azure</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-indigo">indigo</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-purple">purple</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-pink">pink</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-red">red</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-orange">orange</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-yellow">yellow</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-lime">lime</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-green">green</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-teal">teal</a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-cyan">cyan</a>

## Empty badges

Leave the HTML element empty if you want to create badges without any text. Empty badges are particularly useful if you want to make an interface element more noticeable regardless of limited space.

    <a href="#" class="badge bg-blue"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-azure"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-indigo"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-purple"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-pink"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-red"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-orange"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-yellow"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-lime"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-green"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-teal"></a>
    <a href="#" class="badge bg-cyan"></a>
