ion-buttons

The Buttons component is a container element. Buttons placed in a toolbar should be placed inside of the <ion-buttons> element.

The <ion-buttons> element can be positioned inside of the toolbar using a named slot. The below chart has a description of each slot.

Slot	Description

`primary`	Positions element to the `right` of the content in `ios` mode, and to the far `right` in `md` mode.
`start`	Positions to the `left` of the content in LTR, and to the `right` in RTL.
`end`	Positions to the `right` of the content in LTR, and to the `left` in RTL.
