### Alternative

If you want to use forms on grayish background colors, you can use this beautiful alternative style which removes the borders and it is emphasized only by its shadow.

Copy

    <div class="p-4 bg-secondary">
      <form>
      <div class="row">
      <div class="col-md-6">

## Form controls

Textual form controls—like `<input>`s, `<select>`s, and `<textarea>`s—are styled with the `.form-control` class. Included are styles for general appearance, focus state, sizing, and more.

For all form control you can apply the additional modifier classes explained in the Inputs section: `.form-control-alternative`, `.form-control-flush` and `.form-control-muted`.

    <div class="form-check">
