<Highlights features={[ 'Accepts size prop that works on all styles.', 'Can inverse theme with themeInverse.', 'Place an icon before or after.', ]} />

Usage

tsx
import { Button } from 'tamagui'

export default () => <Button>Lorem ipsum</Button>

Sizing

Sizing buttons provides a unique challenge especially for a compiler, because you need to adjust many different properties - not just on the outer frame, but on the text wrapped inside. Tamagui supports adjusting the padding, border radius, font size and icons sizes all in one with the size prop.

tsx
import { Button } from 'tamagui'

export default () => <Button size="$6">Lorem ipsum</Button>

Given your theme defines a size 6, the button will adjust all of the properties appropriately. You can also pass a plain number to get an arbitrary size.

Icon Theming

You can pass icons as either elements or components. If passing components, Tamagui will automatically pass the size and color prop to them based on your theme.

Button props

Button extends View, inheriting all the Tamagui standard props, plus:

<PropsTable data={[ { name: 'size', required: false, type: 'string | tokens.size', description: Set a size, number or one of the size token values., }, { name: 'theme', required: false, type: 'string', description: Apply a theme just to the button and it's children, }, { name: 'themeInverse', required: false, type: 'boolean', description: Helpful for "flipping" any theme between dark and light (including flipping a sub themes defined as [subtheme]-[dark/light], }, { name: 'noTextWrap', required: false, type: 'boolean', description: If true, Button won't wrap content with a Text element., }, { name: 'icon', required: false, type: 'JSX.Element', description: Pass any React element, appears before the text., }, { name: 'iconAfter', required: false, type: 'JSX.Element', description: Pass any React element, appears after the text., }, { name: 'scaleIcon', required: false, type: 'number', description: Scale the icon more than usual by this number., }, { name: 'scaleSpace', required: false, type: 'number', description: Scale the spacing more than usual by this number., }, { name: 'spaceFlex', required: false, type: boolean, description: Makes all space elements have a flex., }, { name: 'color', required: false, type: SizableTextProps['color'], description: Passes "color" down to the inner text component, }, { name: 'fontWeight', required: false, type: SizableTextProps['fontWeight'], description: Passes "fontWeight" down to the inner text component, }, { name: 'letterSpacing', required: false, type: SizableTextProps['letterSpacing'], description: Passes "letterSpacing" down to the inner text component, }, { name: 'textAlign', required: false, type: SizableTextProps['textAlign'], description: Passes "textAlign" down to the inner text component, }, ]} />
