Coming from Orbiter, you should be aware of the following changes:
Link,IconLinkandTextLinkhave all been merged into one.LinkAsButtonhas been removed. It is now possible to use theLinkcomponent without anhrefattribute.
Link
A link allows a user to navigate to a different location.
Anatomy
Composed Components
A Link uses the following components:
Usage
Disabled
Links can be disabled.
External
An external text link will render by default with rel="noopener noreferrer" and target="_blank" attributes.
No Href
When a <Link> does not have an href prop, it is rendered as a <span role="link"> instead of an <a>. Events will need to be handled in JavaScript with the onPress prop.
Note: this will not behave like a native link. Browser features like context menus and open in a new tab will not apply.
Variants
Links can be presented in different variants.
Sizes
Links can be presented in different sizes.
Inherit Size
The size can also be inherited.
Icon
Links can contain an icon.
Start Icon
Non standard start icons can be provided to handle special cases. However, think twice before adding start icons, end icons should be your go to.
Icon Only
A link's content can be a single icon. When using this variant, an accessible name must be provided through the aria-label prop. See WCAG practices.
Quiet
All links can have a quiet style, without an underline. This style should only be used when the placement and context of the link is explicit enough that a visible underline isn’t necessary.
Standalone
All links can have a standalone style, without an underline which is similar to quiet, the difference is this adds block padding to make it more similar to a button.
React Router Link
A button can be rendered as a react router link when using the href property and setting the navigate property on the HopperProvider
Custom Styles
When the colors from the variant props are not enough, you can use the color prop to set the color of the link. This removes the hover and focus colors from the link. Use the color props when a link needs to be placed on top of a colored background or visual. Make sure that the background and the link color meet the minimum color contrast ratio.
Image
A link's content can be an image element.
