Measured entry

hextaui-badge

badgeminimal-flat

A compact React badge for labels, counts, and status indicators, shipped as a shadcn registry TypeScript component. It uses Tailwind theme classes and class-variance-authority for its visual variants, Radix Slot for rendering through a child element, and a local cn class-merging utility.

Verdict

A sensible, focused badge for an existing shadcn-style codebase. It builds, mounts, and checks cleanly in the prepared harness, but it needs a shadcn-style setup because the bare project cannot resolve the local utility import.

Use it if

  • You need a small inline label with default, secondary, destructive, and outline treatments.
  • Your design system already uses shadcn conventions, Tailwind theme tokens, and a cn utility.
  • You want the badge to render as a link or another child element while retaining its styling.

Skip it if

  • Your project does not use Tailwind or shadcn-style theme tokens and you do not want to translate the styles.
  • You need interactive status controls rather than a presentational label.
  • You want a dependency-free badge without Radix Slot or class-variance-authority.

In a non-shadcn project, add Radix Slot and class-variance-authority, provide a cn class-merging utility or replace that call, configure the local import alias, and define the referenced Tailwind color and focus tokens.
