PreviousNext

Displays a button or a component that looks like a button.

import { ArrowUpIcon } from "lucide-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @dots/button

Usage

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
<Button variant="outline">Button</Button>

Cursor

Tailwind v4 switched from cursor: pointer to cursor: default for the button component.

If you want to keep the cursor: pointer behavior, add the following code to your CSS file:

You can also enable this during project setup with npx shadcn@latest init --pointer.

globals.css
@layer base {
  button:not(:disabled),
  [role="button"]:not(:disabled) {
    cursor: pointer;
  }
}

Size

Use the size prop to change the size of the button.

import { ArrowUpRightIcon } from "lucide-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

Default

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonDefault() {

Outline

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonOutline() {

Secondary

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonSecondary() {

Ghost

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonGhost() {

Destructive

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonDestructive() {

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonLink() {

Icon

import { CircleFadingArrowUpIcon } from "lucide-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

With Icon

Remember to add the data-icon="inline-start" or data-icon="inline-end" attribute to the icon for the correct spacing.

import { IconGitBranch, IconGitFork } from "@tabler/icons-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

Rounded

Use the rounded-full class to make the button rounded.

import { ArrowUpIcon } from "lucide-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

Spinner

Render a <Spinner /> component inside the button to show a loading state. Remember to add the data-icon="inline-start" or data-icon="inline-end" attribute to the spinner for the correct spacing.

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonLoading() {

Button Group

To create a button group, use the ButtonGroup component. See the Button Group documentation for more details.

"use client"

import * as React from "react"

You can use the buttonVariants helper to make a link look like a button.

Do not use <Button> for links. The React Aria Button component always applies role="button", which overrides the semantic link role on <a> elements. Use buttonVariants with a plain <a> tag instead.

"use client"

import { buttonVariants } from "@/components/ui/button"
