The badge component can be used to complement other elements such as buttons or text elements as a label or to show the count of a given data, such as the number of comments for an article or how much time has passed by since a comment has been made.
Alternatively, badges can also be used as standalone elements that link to a certain page by using the anchor tag instead of a span element.
