Utility Link

Utility links are similar to ordinary horizontal link lists, but are more compact.

html
<a class="utilitylink" href="">Link text</a>

When linking to external content, it is more polite to add the rel="external" attribute. Adding this attribute displays an icon indicating that it is an external link.

<a class="utilitylink" rel="external" href="https://design.digital.go.jp/dads/">Digital Agency Design System</a>

New Tab or Window

Whether to open a link in a new tab or window should be chosen by the user and should not be explicitly specified. If you must use it, indicate what will happen when the link is clicked.
