# Preselected Buttons

The ButtonGroup enables you to preselect a button.

To achieve this behavior, use the `index` configuration option. The buttons have zero-based indexes.

```jsx-preview
class ButtonGroupContainer extends React.Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props);
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <div className="row">
                <div className="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 example-col">
                    <ButtonGroup index={1}>
                        <li>Green button</li>
                        <li>Option 2</li>
                    </ButtonGroup>
                </div>
            </div>
        );
    }
}
ReactDOM.render(
    <ButtonGroupContainer />,
    document.querySelector('my-app')
);
```
