Customize the close button as texts or other symbols.
:::demo Alert allows you to configure if it's closable. The close button text and closing callbacks are also customizable. `closable` attribute decides if the component can be closed or not. It accepts `boolean`, and the default is `true`. You can set `close-text` attribute to replace the default cross symbol as the close button. Be careful that `close-text` must be a string. `close` event fires when the component is closed.
```html
<template>
<el-alert
title="unclosable alert"
type="success"
:closable="false">
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="customized close-text"
type="info"
close-text="Gotcha">
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="alert with callback"
type="warning"
@close="hello">
</el-alert>
</template>
<script>
export default {
methods: {
hello() {
alert('Hello World!');
}
}
}
</script>
```

### With icon
Displaying an icon improves readability.
:::demo Setting the `show-icon` attribute displays an icon that corresponds with the current Alert type.
```html
<template>
<el-alert
title="success alert"
type="success"
show-icon>
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="info alert"
type="info"
show-icon>
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="warning alert"
type="warning"
show-icon>
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="error alert"
type="error"
show-icon>
</el-alert>
</template>
```
:::
## Centered text
Use the `center` attribute to center the text.
:::demo
```html
<template>
<el-alert
title="success alert"
type="success"
center
show-icon>
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="info alert"
type="info"
center
show-icon>
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="warning alert"
type="warning"
center
show-icon>
</el-alert>
<el-alert
title="error alert"
type="error"
center
show-icon>
</el-alert>
</template>
```

### With description
Description includes a message with more detailed information.
:::demo Besides the required `title` attribute, you can add a `description` attribute to help you describe the alert with more details. Description can only store text string, and it will word wrap automatically.
```html
<template>
<el-alert
title="with description"
type="success"
description="This is a description.">
</el-alert>
</template>
```
:::
### With icon and description
:::demo At last, this is an example with both icon and description.
