Deleted extra 'usually'
  • I'm all for changing the colors - usually, red is usually a negative indicator, which IMO doesn't fit with [status-completed] or [status-planned] or even [status-deferred]
  • Purple would be a nice color, but it's unfortunately [not on the official Co-design color list](http://design.codidact.org/utilities/colors/), which is used to style everything on Codidact (though it could always be added).
  • My own suggestion would be yellow for [status-planned] and [status-deferred], green for [status-completed], and red for [status-declined]. Incorporating your suggestion to remove the 'status-' prefix, it would look something like
  • <a class="badge is-tag is-green is-outlined">completed</a><a class="badge is-tag is-yellow is-outlined">planned</a><a class="badge is-tag is-yellow is-outlined">deferred</a><a class="badge is-tag is-red is-outlined">declined</a>
  • What do you all think?

I'm all for changing the colors - usually, red is usually a negative indicator, which IMO doesn't fit with [status-completed] or [status-planned] or even [status-deferred]

Purple would be a nice color, but it's unfortunately [not on the official Co-design color list](http://design.codidact.org/utilities/colors/), which is used to style everything on Codidact (though it could always be added).

My own suggestion would be yellow for [status-planned] and [status-deferred], green for [status-completed], and red for [status-declined]. Incorporating your suggestion to remove the 'status-' prefix, it would look something like

<a class="badge is-tag is-green is-outlined">completed</a><a class="badge is-tag is-yellow is-outlined">planned</a><a class="badge is-tag is-yellow is-outlined">deferred</a><a class="badge is-tag is-red is-outlined">declined</a>

What do you all think?
