Badges
Documentation and examples for badges, our small count and labeling component.
Examples
Badges scale to match the size of the immediate parent element by using relative font sizing and em units. As of v5, badges no longer have focus or hover styles for links.

Positioned
Use utilities to modify a .badge and position it in the corner of a link or button.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary position-relative">
Inbox
<span class="position-absolute top-0 start-100 translate-middle badge rounded-pill bg-danger">
99 <span class="visually-hidden">unread messages</span>
</span>
</button>
You can also replace the .badge class with a few more utilities without a count for a more generic indicator.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary position-relative">
Profile
<span class="position-absolute top-0 start-100 translate-middle p-2 bg-danger border border-light rounded-circle">
<span class="visually-hidden">New alerts</span>
</span>
</button>
Background colors
Use our background utility classes to quickly change the appearance of a badge. Please note that when using Bootstrap’s default .bg-light, you’ll likely need a text color utility like .text-dark for proper styling. This is because background utilities do not set anything but background-color.
<span class="badge bg-primary"> Primary </span>
<span class="badge bg-secondary">Secondary </span>
<span class="badge bg-success"> Success </span>
<span class="badge bg-danger"> Danger </span>
<span class="badge bg-warning text-dark"> Warning </span>
<span class="badge bg-info text-dark"> Info </span>
<span class="badge bg-light text-dark"> Light </span>
<span class="badge bg-dark"> Dark </span>
Pill badges
Use the .rounded-pill utility class to make badges more rounded with a larger border-radius.
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-primary"> Primary </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-secondary">Secondary </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-success"> Success </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-danger"> Danger </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-warning text-dark"> Warning </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-info text-dark"> Info </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-light text-dark"> Light </span>
<span class="badge rounded-pill bg-dark"> Dark </span>
