## Semantic UI Buttons
A button indicates a possible user action. Semantic UI provides an easy-to-use syntax that simplifies not only the styling of a button, but also the natural language semantics.
#### How to Use
Semantic UI class is simply added to a button element, various example were given below to indicate how to use it.
#### Types
* Standard Button
Standard Semantic UI button
```
<button class="ui button">Standard Button</button>
```
* Emphasis Button
A button with a different level of emphasis
```
<button class="ui primary button">
```
Other emphasis classes are `secondary`, `positive`, and `negative`
* Animated Button
A button with animation, showing hidden contents
```
<div class="ui animated fade button" tabindex="0">
<div class="visible content">Sign-up for a Pro account</div>
<div class="hidden content">$12.99 a month</div>
</div>
```
The property `tabindex="0"` above makes the button keyboard focusable, since the `<button>`tag was not used.
* Labeled Button
A button alongside a label
```
<div class="ui labeled button" tabindex="0">
<div class="ui button"><i class="heart icon"></i> Like</div>
<a class="ui basic label">2,048</a>
</div>
```
the element `<i>` is used to specify an icon, here it is a heart icon `<i class="heart icon"></i>` alongside basic label `<a class="ui basic label">2,048</a>`
* Icon Button
A Semantic UI button can be just an icon
```
<button class="ui icon button">
<i class="camera icon"></i>
</button>
```
The above is just a camera icon
#### Groups
Semantic UI buttons can exist in a group
```
<div class="ui buttons">
<button class="ui button">One</button>
<button class="ui button">Two</button>
<button class="ui button">Three</button>
</div>
```
#### Content
Semantic UI buttons can contain conditionals
```
<div class="ui buttons">
<button class="ui positive button">Yes</button>
<div class="or" data-text="or"></div>
<button class="ui negative button">No</button>
</div>
```
#### States
Semantic UI buttons can exist in different states, `active`, `disabled`, `loading`. Simply add a state name to the `class` attribute` of `<button>` element.
```
<button class="ui loading button">Loading</button>
```
#### Variations
