#### A low-prominence button for progressive disclosure of secondary flows.

### 👍 Dos

- Use it for progressive disclosure purposes, such as displaying elements related to secondary actions (e.g edit buttons).
- Use it when it's semantically a button, but the prominence is akin to a link.
- Use it for placing low-key icons that behave as a button. Strongly consider the use of labels, though.
- Use it for buttons with relatively long labels that can’t be abbreviated.

### 👎 Don'ts

- Don’t use it with other in-line elements very close to it.
- Don’t position it in-line with other types of buttons.
- Don’t use it when the use case calls for the prominence of a primary or secondary button.
