Overview
The React Message is a versatile graphical user interface that presents messages with clear visual severity indicators.

The component includes a range of built-in features, such as customizable severity levels, appearance variants, icons, and flexible content for easy integration and styling.

Display messages with predefined severity types, each accompanied by distinctive icons and colors to clearly convey their importance to the user. The available severity types are:
- Normal: Standard messages for general information.
- Success: Indicates successful operations or positive outcomes.
- Info: Provides information or updates.
- Warning: Alerts users to potential issues or cautions.
- Error: Highlights critical issues or failures requiring attention.

Variants
The React Message component offers predefined appearance variants to provide flexible visual representations of messages:
- Standard: A clean, minimal design with subtle styling for general use.
- Outlined: A bordered appearance for a distinct, highlighted look.
- Filled: A solid background color for a bold and prominent presentation.

Icons
To enhance user comprehension, the Message incorporates visual icons alongside text. Severity icons are displayed to the left of the message content, providing an immediate visual cue about the message’s urgency. A close icon is also included to the right of the message, allowing users to hide messages after reading them.
