Anchor to best-practicesBest Practices

  • Use links primarily for navigation and use buttons primarily for actions.

  • The HTML that renders for the s-button and s-link components includes style and accessibility information. Use these components intentionally and consistently to provide a more inclusive experience for assistive technology users and a more cohesive visual experience for sighted users.
