Links

Razor

Links are lightly styled via the a element by default. In addition, we provide .s-link and its variations. In rare situations, .s-link can be applied to n button while maintaining the look of an anchor.

Descendent anchor examples

Section titled Descendent anchor examples

Sometimes you need to give all <a> elements inside a container or component the same color, even when it‘s impractical or even impossible to give each anchor element an s-link class (e.g. because the markup is generated from Markdown).

In this case, you can add the s-anchors class together with one of the modifiers s-anchors__default, s-anchors__grayscale, s-anchors__muted, s-anchors__danger, or s-anchors__inherit to the container. 

<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__default">…</div>
<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__grayscale">…</div>
<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__muted">…</div>
<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__danger">…</div>
<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__underlined">…</div>
<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__inherit">…</div>

There is a default link here, , and another one.

There is a grayscale link here, , and another one.

There is a muted link here, , and another one.

There is a danger link here, , and another one.

There is a underlined link here, , and another one.

There is a inherit link here, , and another one.

One additional level of nesting is supported, but even that should be exceedingly rare. More than that is not supported.

<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__danger s-card">
    <p>
        All <a href="#">links</a> in this <a href="#">outer box</a>
        are <a href="#">dangerous</a>.
    </p>
    <div class="s-anchors s-anchors__default s-card w70 mt8">
        <p>
            But all <a href="#">links</a> in this <a href="#">inner box</a>
            have the <a href="#">default</a> link color.
        </p>
    </div>
</div>

All links in this outer box are dangerous.

But all links in this inner box have the default link color.

An explicit s-link on an anchor overrides any s-anchors setting:

<div class="s-anchors s-anchors__danger s-card">
    All <a href="#">links</a> in this <a href="#">box</a> are <a href="#">dangerous</a>,
    except for <a class="s-link">this one</a> which uses the default color, and
    <a class="s-link s-link__muted">this muted link</a>.
</div>
All links in this box are dangerous, except for this one which uses the default color, and this muted link.
