Label Overview
The Label component is a fundamental element in form design that provides descriptive text or captions for form inputs. It helps users understand the purpose or expected input of each field, improving clarity and usability. Labels play a crucial role in creating accessible and user-friendly forms by enhancing the overall form structure and guiding users through the input process.
By default the Label can be set as part of the Telerik and Kendo UI Form component. Custom components that do not contain form element would require setting additional properties.
