Prerequisites | Prérequis

Describe the feature request. | Décrivez la fonctionnalité demandée

An option to adjust component spacing and layout to suit different needs, enabling designers and developers to create more tailored and flexible layouts—while still respecting accessibility best practices.

Describe the use case. | Décrivez les cas d’utilisation

We've received some user feedback asking for more compact designs, especially for complex forms and large amounts of info that need to be entered or reviewed at once. Having an option for more compact screens, similar to native-app styles, would help us make use of space, particularly for data entry forms.

Accessibility consideration: reducing density too much could make reduce ease of navigation for some users.
