**Global Styles**

- The brightly colored [background](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/65/how-to-change-background-color-of-tab-control-in-c-sharp) and height of the 100vh ensures that the form is focused where it is seen.
## Form Container
- The maximum width of 500px ensures that the form is not too wide on the big screen.
- Padding, box shadows, and border radius give the style a card-like appearance.
## Form Styles
- The form and its elements use flexbox to arrange objects in a stack.
- Labels, inputs, text areas, and buttons are styled for consistency and readability.
- The button changes color on hover for a better [user experience](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/87076/explore-your-career-in-user-experience-design).
## Responsive Styles
- Media requests change padding, font sizes and container widths for screens smaller than **600px**.
- This ensures that the form is usable and looks good on [mobile devices](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/105119/how-to-use-mobile-devices-for-field-service-management-in-business).
