## Demo

### Tailwind

This example shows how to implement the component using Tailwind CSS.

```tsx
/* index.tsx */
import { Field } from 'base-ui-solid/field';
import { Fieldset } from 'base-ui-solid/fieldset';

export default function ExampleField() {
  return (
    <Fieldset.Root class="flex w-full max-w-64 flex-col gap-4">
      <Fieldset.Legend class="border-b border-neutral-950 text-base font-bold text-neutral-950 dark:border-white dark:text-white">
        Billing details
      </Fieldset.Legend>

      <Field.Root class="flex flex-col items-start gap-1">
        <Field.Label class="text-sm font-bold text-neutral-950 dark:text-white">
          Company
        </Field.Label>
        <Field.Control
          placeholder="Enter company name"
          class="h-8 w-full border border-neutral-950 bg-white dark:bg-neutral-950 px-2 text-sm any-pointer-coarse:text-base font-normal text-neutral-950 placeholder:text-neutral-500 focus:outline-2 focus:-outline-offset-1 focus:outline-neutral-950 dark:focus:outline-white dark:border-white dark:text-white dark:placeholder:text-neutral-400"
        />
      </Field.Root>

      <Field.Root class="flex flex-col items-start gap-1">
        <Field.Label class="text-sm font-bold text-neutral-950 dark:text-white">Tax ID</Field.Label>
        <Field.Control
          placeholder="Enter fiscal number"
          class="h-8 w-full border border-neutral-950 bg-white dark:bg-neutral-950 px-2 text-sm any-pointer-coarse:text-base font-normal text-neutral-950 placeholder:text-neutral-500 focus:outline-2 focus:-outline-offset-1 focus:outline-neutral-950 dark:focus:outline-white dark:border-white dark:text-white dark:placeholder:text-neutral-400"
        />
      </Field.Root>
    </Fieldset.Root>
  );
}
```

### CSS Modules

/* index.module.css */
.Fieldset {

  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  gap: 1rem;

.Legend {
  border-bottom: 1px solid oklch(14.5% 0 0deg);
  font-weight: 700;
  font-size: 1rem;
  line-height: 1.5rem;
  color: oklch(14.5% 0 0deg);

  @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
    border-bottom: 1px solid white;
    color: white;
  }
}

.Field {

  @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
    border: 1px solid white;
    background-color: oklch(14.5% 0 0deg);
    color: white;
  }

  &::placeholder {
    color: oklch(55.6% 0 0deg);

    @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
      color: oklch(70.8% 0 0deg);
    }
  }

  &:focus {
    outline: 2px solid oklch(14.5% 0 0deg);
    outline-offset: -1px;

    @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {

}

.Error {
  font-size: 0.875rem;
  line-height: 1.25rem;
  color: oklch(50.5% 0.213 27.518deg);

  @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
    color: oklch(70.4% 0.191 22.216deg);
  }
}

.Description {
  margin: 0;
  font-size: 0.875rem;
  line-height: 1.25rem;
  color: oklch(43.9% 0 0deg);

  @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
    color: oklch(70.8% 0 0deg);
  }
}
```

```tsx
/* index.tsx */
import { Field } from 'base-ui-solid/field';
import { Fieldset } from 'base-ui-solid/fieldset';
import styles from './index.module.css';
