Chips are designed to be small, interactive components that provide users with a way to display, select, or manage information efficiently. Chips often appear in single-line or multi-line
text boxes. They are compact and include text of the same or similar size as the rest of the text box, but the text in the chip is framed in a rectangular box, often with rounded corners. This design allows them to fit neatly into the rest of the text and, at the same time, show that the text is a single, distinct element. In addition to the text, the chip usually includes an interactive element, such as a button, that allows its removal. It may also contain an icon or an avatar. For example, a chip with a user tag might include the user's name and a profile picture, or a filter chip might include a label and a small "x" to remove it. Chips can be interactive, enabling users to click, drag, select, or delete them. This makes them useful for applications such as email clients (to display email recipients), search filters, and
tagging systems. == History ==
