FormField

The FormField component is the outermost layout component of an input component (for example TextInput), providing support for displaying a sibling label element alongside.

It also features responsive design: small containers show the label elements aligned on top of the input. In comparison, wider containers show input elements with their label aligned to the left.

The form field is child-agnostic.
