Notes

Padding is used to add additional space around content to improve readability and the user experience. A few important props for Padding include variant, which includes three preset Padding values - dense, standard, and airy, and customPadding, which allows a different amount of Padding to be applied around an item, rather than one of the three preset options. Custom Padding must be a valid CSS Padding declaration. i.e. 38px 30px. Setting customPadding will overwrite the variant padding if both are set.

Usage

Padding can be used with many components including Typobody, as shown in the Storybook demo. Additional use cases include putting space in between Buttons and other components when arranging them in a larger object, like a form.
