# Button: As a link

> Pass an anchor to `render` and set `nativeButton={false}` so the button keeps link semantics.

Example: https://hextaui.com/docs/button/examples/link
Component docs: https://hextaui.com/docs/button.md

## Add this example

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add https://hextaui.com/r/button-link.json
```

This adds `components/examples/button/link.tsx` with the Button component and the HextaUI theme tokens.

## Source

```tsx title="components/examples/button/link.tsx"
import { IconArrowUpRight } from "@tabler/icons-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"

export function ButtonLink() {
  return (
    <Button variant="outline" nativeButton={false} render={<a href="#" />}>
      Read the docs
      <IconArrowUpRight data-icon="inline-end" />
    </Button>
  )
}
```
