Link class

A navigation link that renders itself as an <a> tag.

Supports optional leading and trailing icon components and a text label, laid out horizontally via CSS inline-flex.

Use classes to apply context-specific CSS (e.g. 'nav-link', 'social-link', 'topic-link'). Icon wrappers automatically use '{classes}-icon' for consistent styling.

Link.path('/docs', label: 'Docs', leading: Icons.docs)
Link.url('https://github.com', label: 'GitHub', trailing: Icons.openInNew)
