Getting Started with the React Badge Component

Learn how to create and configure the Syncfusion React Badge component in a React application using Visual Studio Code. The Badge is a CSS-based component that indicates a status or notification in different shapes and sizes and is often used in messenger apps. In this video, you will see how to create a React app and add the Badge component. You will see the different shapes and types of badges. I will also show you how to integrate the badge with other UI components. An easily customizable, pure HTML5/CSS notification Badge is commonly used to display a notification count or status information in different sizes and contextual color variants.

The Syncfusion React Badge component offers a wide range of customization possibilities. You have the flexibility to adjust the badge's content, position, and appearance, and manage click events. This adaptability allows you to seamlessly integrate the Badge component with other Syncfusion components or external libraries, and create dynamic and engaging user interfaces within your React application. The default shape of a badge typically appears as a rounded rectangular or square design, offering a standard look.

However, it's possible to transform the badge into a circular shape when needed by adjusting the component's properties. Circular badges are commonly employed for displaying notifications or status indicators. In the Syncfusion React Badge component, various badge types are available, each crafted to serve distinct use cases and visual styles. Furthermore, event handling, including click events on the badge, is possible using prop-based event handlers.

Syncfusion components are known for their theme support, enabling you to harmonize the badge's look and feel with the overall design of your application. You can style the Badge component according to your preferences with ready-made themes or craft custom ones.
