Documentation and examples for badges, our small count and labeling component.
Use our background utility classes to quickly change the appearance of a badge. Please note that
when using Bootstrap’s default .bg-light, you’ll likely need a text color utility
like .text-dark for proper styling. This is because background utilities do not set
anything but background-color.
