Like Button

Like and reaction buttons

What it solves

A Like Button pattern helps teams create a reliable way to capture a fast lightweight reaction while still making the current state, count, and undo path clear. It is most useful when teams need social or content reactions. Compared with adjacent patterns, this pattern should reduce friction without hiding the state, rules, or recovery paths people need to keep moving.

When to use

• Social or content reactions
• Lightweight endorsement signals
• Bookmark-like appreciation moments
