 * Where I can change the default color of a text field label (placeholder)?
    Its
   gray is too faint and I want it to be a little bit darker.

 * Hi erenduk,
 * There is currently nothing in the customizer for the placeholder/label colour,
   but I’ll consider adding it. Thanks for the suggestion.
 * In the meantime you can add this CSS via the customizer (Customize > Material
   Design Forms > Custom CSS field) and change the colour to whatever you like.
 *     ```
       #cf7md-form label, #cf7md-form .cf7md-label--static, #cf7md-form .cf7md-help-text, #cf7md-form .mdc-textfield__label {
           color: black;
       }
       ```
   
 * Thanks,
    Angus
