Container

• Every input should have a mat-form-field container, which formats its' content styles and spacing, and facilitates spacing for any required input field error messages.

...

• Use <mat-hint> container if the input is required and needs a ‘required message' e.g. This field is required

• If an input IS required, add class=”required” to the label, which will add a red asterix after the label to indicate the field must be completed
