Description

Use Link for navigating from one page to another. Link styles anchor tags with default blue styling and hover text-decoration.

Arguments

Name	Required	Description
href		`String` URL to be used for the Link. Required. If the requirements are not met an error will be raised in non production environments. In production, an empty link element will be rendered.
scheme		`Symbol` One of `:default`, `:primary`, or `:secondary`.
muted		`Boolean` Uses light gray for Link color, and blue on hover.
underline		`Boolean` Whether or not to underline the link.
system_arguments		`Hash` System arguments

Tooltip that appears on mouse hover or keyboard focus over the link. Use tooltips sparingly and as a last resort. Important: This tooltip defaults to type: :description. In a few scenarios, type: :label may be more appropriate. The tooltip will appear adjacent to the anchor element. Both the tooltip and the anchor will be nested under a positioning wrapper. Consult the Primer::Alpha::Tooltip documentation for more information.
