Styling our form labels

The first thing we can tackle with our knowledge of styling is our form widgets. Our colorization of the form is rather ugly and incomplete due to the LabelInput widgets retaining their default, drab color. We'll need to style each of those widgets to match the color of its LabelInput.

In the views.py file, add this near the start of the DataRecordForm.__init__() method:

style = ttk.Style()

We're creating our Style object so that we can start working with our Ttk styles. What styles do we need?

We need a style for Ttk Label widgets for each section, since we'll need different colors for the widgets in RecordInfo, EnvironmentInfo, and Plant Info.

We'll need to style our Ttk Checkbutton, since it uses its own built-in label rather than a separate label widget. Since there's only one right now, we only need one style for it.
