Links
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 examplesSometimes 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>
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>
