Buttons are the core of our action components. Their affordance is immediate and can be use for most actions and allow users to access the target with a single interaction. Buttons clearly provide a next step for the user.
Our Buttons depend on the theme they are contained in and change in appearance based on said theme. The themes and button colors were designed together to ensure the proper amount affordance and clarity.

Note: interactive states only appear when the user interacts with the button, they are not styles that are available for use.
Note: full@small means that the button will go from auto width to full width when the browser goes below the small breakpoint.
Note: when passing icons inside a button, it is required to define the icon's position, by default it is set to after, which means the icon will come after the text.
Note: an icon-only button still is still required to have text, and that text is accessible through screen readers. It's just visually hidden.
