Badge

Common

Component in Material Compose

Badge is a component that can contain dynamic information, such as the presence of a new notification or a number of pending requests. Badges can be icon only or contain short text.

See [BadgedBox] for a top level layout that will properly place the badge relative to content such as text or an icon.
