CSS3 GitHub Buttons

Buttons

The "buttons" can be created by adding class="button" to any appropriate <a>, <button>, or <input> element. Add a further class of pill to create a button pill-like button. Add a further class of primary to emphasise more important actions.

<a href="#" class="button">Post comment</a>

<a href="#" class="button pill">This is a pill button</a>

This is a pill button

<a href="#" class="button primary">Publish post</a> 
<a href="#" class="button">Save as draft</a>

Publish post Save as draft

Buttons with dangerous actions

If you have a button that triggers a dangerous action, like deleting data, this can be indicated by adding the class danger.

<a href="#" class="button danger">Delete post</a>

Delete post

Big buttons

If you wish to emphasize a specific action you can add the class big.

<a href="#" class="button big">Create Project</a>

Create Project

Grouped buttons

Groups of buttons can be created by wrapping them in an element given a class of button-group. A less important group of buttons can be marked out by adding a further class, minor-group.

<div class="button-group">
<a href="#" class="button primary">Dashboard</a>
<a href="#" class="button">Inbox</a>
<a href="#" class="button">Account</a>
<a href="#" class="button">Logout</a>
</div>

Dashboard Inbox Account Logout

<ul class="button-group">
<li><a href="#" class="button primary pill">Dashboard</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="button pill">Inbox</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="button pill">Account</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="button pill">Logout</a></li>
</ul>

Dashboard
Inbox
Account
Logout

<div class="button-group 
minor-group
">…</div>

Dashboard Inbox Account Logout

Mixed groups

Displaying a mixture of grouped and standalone buttons, as might be seen in a toolbar, can be done by adding another wrapping element with the class button-container.

<div class="actions 
button-container
">
<a href="#" class="button primary">Compose new</a>
<div class="button-group">
<a href="#" class="button primary">Archive</a>
<a href="#" class="button">Report spam</a>
<a href="#" class="button danger">Delete</a>
</div>
<div class="button-group minor-group">
<a href="#" class="button">Move to</a>
<a href="#" class="button">Labels</a>
</div>
</div>

Compose new

Archive Report spam Delete

Move to Labels
