Button is created using the Button element.
<Button />
Text of the button is defined using the label property.
<Button label="Submit" />
Icon on a button is specified with icon property and position is configured using iconPos attribute. Default icon position is "left" and alternative is "right". To display only an icon, leave the label as undefined.
<Button label="Submit" icon="pi pi-check" iconPos="right" />
Events are defined with the standard notation.
<Button label="Submit" @click="handleClick($event)"/>
Different options are available as severity levels.
<Button label="Primary" />
<Button label="Secondary" class="p-button-secondary" />
<Button label="Success" class="p-button-success" />
<Button label="Info" class="p-button-info" />
<Button label="Warning" class="p-button-warning" />
<Button label="Warning" class="p-button-help" />
<Button label="Danger" class="p-button-danger" />
Text buttons have transparent background and borders, use p-button-text to apply text button styling. In addition when used with .p-button-plain text buttons ignore severity levels and displayed as a regular text.
<Button label="Submit" class="p-button-text" />
<Button icon="pi pi-check" class="p-button-text" />
<Button label="Cancel" icon="pi pi-times" class="p-button-text" />
<Button label="Search" icon="pi pi-search" iconPos="right" class="p-button-text p-button-text" />
A button can be raised by having "p-button-raised" style class and similarly borders can be made rounded using "p-button-rounded" class.
<Button label="Primary" class="p-button-raised p-button-rounded" />
An alternate styling for a button is the outlined option where background becomes transparent. Apply "p-button-outlined" to style a button as outlined.
<Button label="Primary" class="p-button-outlined" />
Use "p-button-link" class to render the button as a link.
<Button label="Link" class="p-button-link" />
Badge is a small status indicator for a button. Refer to the
<Button type="button" label="Emails" badge="8" />
<Button type="button" label="Messages" icon="pi pi-users" class="p-button-warning" badge="8" badgeClass="p-badge-info" />
Wrapping the buttons in a container having a .p-buttonset class, groups the buttons side to side.
<span class="p-buttonset">
<Button label="Save" icon="pi pi-check" />
<Button label="Delete" icon="pi pi-trash" />
<Button label="Cancel" icon="pi pi-times" />
</span>

Button component renders a native button element that implicitly includes any passed prop. Text to describe the button is defined with the aria-label prop, if not present label prop is used as the value. If the button is icon only or custom templating is used, it is recommended to use aria-label so that screen readers would be able to read the element properly.
<Button icon="pi pi-check" aria-label="Submit" />
<Button icon="pi pi-check" label="Submit" />
<Button class="youtube p-0" aria-label="Youtube">
<i class="pi pi-youtube px-2"></i>
<span class="px-3">Youtube</span>
