A badge is used to annotate other information like a label or an object name.
Usage
Badges are typically used to reflect counts like number of objects, number of events, or number of unread items. If you need a selectable annotation consider using a label instead.
They are often found in filter toggles to indicate the number of selections that have been made in a toolbar filter or select list. Please refer to the select list documentation for more examples.
