Button

Overview#

A native button. Renders as a SwiftUI Button with buttonStyle(...) on iOS and a Material3 Button on Android.

Visual styling follows Model 3 — colors, radius, shadow, and typography come from the theme. There are intentionally no per-instance color, background, border, radius, shadow, font-size, or font-weight overrides. For full visual control drop to a <native:pressable> wrapping your own content.

<native:button label="Get Started" @press="handleStart" />

@press names a public method on your component — tapping this button calls handleStart().

Props#

The label can be passed as the label attribute or as slot content between the tags. If both are set, label wins. Slot content is treated as plain text — nested tags are stripped and whitespace is collapsed. Use the icon / icon-trailing props to add icons rather than nesting elements in the slot.

• label - Button text (optional if using slot content)
• variant - Semantic style: primary (default), secondary, destructive, ghost. Each fills its theme token solid; for a softer tonal fill, set opacity on the token itself (e.g. 'secondary' => 'fuchsia-500/70' in config/native-ui.php) — see Theming
• size - sm, md (default), lg
• icon - A leading icon name (optional)
• icon-trailing - A trailing icon name (optional)
• font - Custom font for the label: a resources/fonts/ file token or a config alias like accent (optional, string) — see Text › Custom fonts
• line-height - Label line height as a multiplier of the font size (optional, float)
• line-height-px - Label line height as an absolute value in pixels (optional, float)
• disabled - Disable the button (optional, boolean, default: false). Disabled buttons render with the theme's surface-variant fill and on-surface-variant label on both platforms
• loading - Show a spinner in place of the leading icon and prevent presses (optional, boolean, default: false). Styled like disabled while the spinner runs
• a11y-label - Accessibility label override (optional)
• a11y-hint - Accessibility hint (optional)
• menu - Attach a tap-to-open dropdown menu — an array of NavAction items. Tapping opens the menu instead of firing @press. See Menus

Events#

• @press - Component method to call when tapped
