  • Horizontal: display: flex; align-items: flex-start; gap: 1rem
• FieldLabel: form-label (base), col-form-label (horizontal)
  • Default: margin-bottom: 0.5rem; font-weight: 500
  • Horizontal: padding-top: calc(0.375rem + 1px); padding-bottom: calc(0.375rem + 1px); margin-bottom: 0; font-weight: 500
• FieldBody: No classes (Bootstrap 5 doesn't require them)

All default styling can be overridden by passing custom Style or Class parameters to the components.
