### Type

Use the `type` prop and the `BUTTON_TYPES` object from `./button.constants.js` to change the `Button` type.

Possible types include:

- `BUTTON_TYPES.PRIMARY`
- `BUTTON_TYPES.SECONDARY`
- `BUTTON_TYPES.LINK`

<Canvas>

```jsx
import { Button, BUTTON_TYPES } from '../ui/component-library/button';

<Button type={BUTTON_TYPES.LINK}>Button Link</Button>
```

### Size

Use the `size` prop and the `Size` object from `./ui/helpers/constants/design-system.js` to change the size of `Button`. Defaults to `Size.MD`

Optional: `BUTTON_SIZES` from `./button` object can be used instead of `Size`.

Possible sizes include:

- `Size.inherit` inherits the font-size of the parent element. For [ButtonLink](/docs/components-componentlibrary-buttonlink--default-story) uses only
- `Size.auto` inherits auto height, but keeps the same button font-size. For [ButtonLink](/docs/components-componentlibrary-buttonlink--default-story) uses only
- `Size.SM` 32px
- `Size.MD` 40px
- `Size.LG` 48px

  <Story id="components-componentlibrary-button--href" />
</Canvas>

```jsx
import { Button } from '../ui/component-library';
