Summary π‘
Broaden the use cases supported by the Chip/Badge component, make it support the use cases of what most designers and developers associate with a "badge".
Examples π
import { Chip } from '@material-ui/core';
<Typography variant="h3">
Example heading
<Chip size="xsmall" color="success">New</Badge>
</Typography>
Motivation π¦
Designers often display "badges" in a wide variety of contexts: table cell, side nav link, headline1 adornment, etc.
The current Chip component tries to solve this problem, but it could likely be improved:
Broaden the supported colors
Provide a mode with more density
Allow changing the shape from circular to rounded
At the same time, we have a Badge component that supports a narrower use case for what most expect with what a "badge" is traditionally used for.
It appears that there is a good set of colors for standard use cases/contexts. Are there other cases for certain colors, or are more colors wanted for personalization such as for Avatar chips?
