# Icon Button
Icon buttons are used when no text accompanies the button. It consists of an icon that may be
updated to any icon in the `bwi-font`, a `title` attribute, and an `aria-label`.
The most common use of the icon button is in the banner, toast, and modal components as a close
button. It can also be found in tables as the 3 dot option menu, or on navigation list items when
there are options that need to be collapsed into a menu.
Similar to the main button components, spacing between multiple icon buttons should be .5rem.
## Usage
Icon buttons can be found in other components such as: the
[banner](?path=/docs/component-library-banner--docs)
[dialog](?path=/docs/component-library-dialogs--docs), and
[table](?path=/docs/component-library-table--docs).
## Styles
There are 4 common styles for button main, muted, contrast, and danger. The other styles follow the
button component styles.
### Main
Used for general icon buttons appearing on the theme’s main `background`
### Muted
Used for low emphasis icon buttons appearing on the theme’s main `background`
### Contrast
Used on a theme’s colored or contrasting backgrounds such as in the navigation or on toasts and
banners.
### Danger
Danger is used for “trash” actions throughout the experience, most commonly in the bottom right of
the dialog component.
### Primary
Used in place of the main button component if no text is used. This allows the button to display
square.
### Secondary
Used in place of the main button component if no text is used. This allows the button to display
square.
### Light
Used on a background that is dark in both light theme and dark theme. Example: end user navigation
styles.
**Note:** Main and contrast styles appear on backgrounds where using `primary-700` as a focus
indicator does not meet WCAG graphic contrast guidelines.
## Sizes
There are 2 sizes for the icon button: `small` and `default`.
Default is typically used for most instances. Small is used if the implementation needs a variant
with less padding around the icon, such as in the navigation component.

## Accessibility
Follow guidelines outlined in the [Button docs](?path=/docs/component-library-button--doc)
Always use the `appA11yTitle` directive set to a string that describes the action of the
icon-button. This will auto assign the same string to the `title` and `aria-label` attributes.
`aria-label` allows assistive technology to announce the action the button takes to the users.
`title` attribute provides a user with the browser tool tip if they do not understand what the icon
is indicating.
