The [classname]#Button# component is normally used for initiating some action,
such as finalizing input in forms. When the user clicks a button, a
[classname]#Button.ClickEvent# is fired, which can be handled by adding a __click listener__
using either the [methodname]#onClick()# or the [methodname]#addClickListener()# method.

You can handle button clicks most easily with an anonymous class or a lambda expression, as follows:
[source, java]
----
Button button = new Button("Do not press this button");
button.addClickListener(clickEvent ->
Notification.show("Do not press this button again"));
----
The listener can also be given in the constructor, which is often perhaps simpler.
== CSS Style Rules
[source, css]
----
.v-button { }
.v-button-wrap { }
.v-button-caption { }
----
A button has an overall [literal]#++v-button++# style. The caption has
[literal]#++v-button-caption++# style. There is also an intermediate wrap
element, which may help in styling in some cases.
The button component has many style variants in the Valo theme, as illustrated in <<figure.component.button.valostyles>>.
The styles are defined in the [classname]#ValoTheme# class.
