Experimental Design [Larger action link variation] #3536

Open Cieramaddox opened 6 days ago

Cieramaddox commented 6 days ago

What

Requesting asynchronous approval to add a variation of the action link that is larger (20px font) to the design system

Purpose

Several tools in the Unified Appointment Experience are moving toward a more visually prominent action link as the standard action link is frequently overlooked.

Usage

On the appointments home page, the "start scheduling" link is the first action on the page and is intended to be of higher affordance, but with the addition of other tasks and items, it has started to lose visual prominence. This is also the case with other tools as well. Secure Messaging has this already being used in production.

Examples

Accessibility

This is a visual change that would not impact accessibility

Guidance

This variation would be used to differentiate from other action links.
