To redirect to the home page you need a controller that renders it.

For instance if I have HomeController and a function inside it that does something like:

public Result welcome() {
        return ok(views.html.index.render());
    }

Then you would have to set up your routes file to do something like

GET     /                      controllers.HomeController.welcome()

Once that is done then you can put do something like this on your button code: 

<input onclick="window.location.href='@routes.HomeController.welcome()'"></input>

I would suggest using a javascript function to redirect to a page if you are going to be using an input html object but if you want you can also do something like this

<a href="@routes.HomeController.welcome()">
     <div class="my-button">Button</div>
</a>

Then you can style the class my-button to make it look like a button.

I hope that answers your question.
