Troubleshooting
Check behavior before surface.
- If the material is missing, confirm the registry-installed shared and component CSS files are imported once.
- If interaction differs, preserve this contract: No component-specific keys.
- If assistive output differs, preserve this semantic foundation: A span; decorative dots and icons are hidden from assistive technology.
- If dark, RTL, or reduced-motion behavior is missing, verify the nearest theme, direction, and media-query boundaries rather than adding page-local overrides.
Implementation decisions
When to use Badge
Use a badge for a short, stable status or classification that helps someone scan nearby content. Write the meaning in text rather than relying on colour, shape, or position, and avoid making a non-interactive status look like a button. Decide how urgent changes are announced separately from the visual token. Test long translations, repeated states in dense lists, forced colours, dark mode, zoom, and values that update after the page loads.
