When To Use
| Use | Avoid |
|---|---|
| A button triggers a clear action such as register, download, submit, save, or continue. | Avoid using this component when the content has a different job or needs a simpler plain-text treatment. |
| Use actions where people can immediately do something: submit a form, register for an event, download a file, open a map, or contact a group. | Avoid changing approved colours, typography, logo artwork, or class names to create a local style guide. |
| Use the starter markup as a copy/paste baseline for websites, Ghost HTML blocks, generated pages, or print previews. | Avoid copying placeholder IDs, links, contact details, or image paths without replacing them. |

Review Notes
Web
Use actions where people can immediately do something: submit a form, register for an event, download a file, open a map, or contact a group.
Translate actions into visible instructions with a readable URL, phone number, email, QR code, date, or place-based next step.
States And Variants
