Width of inputs in inline form - Bootstrap 4

Good morning, I am trying to set up a inline form with inputs of different widths using Bootstrap 4. I have tried the different options available here: http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/components/forms/.

This is as far as I went:

<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-xs-1">
            <label for="exampleInputName2" class="col-form-label">Name</label>
        </div>
        <div class="col-xs-2">
            <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder=".col-xs-2">
        </div>
        <div class="col-xs-3">
            <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder=".col-xs-3">
        </div>
        <div class="col-xs-4">
            <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder=".col-xs-4">
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

But I am not using any form classes or tags.

---------------- EDIT ------------------------

To be more specific, how would you specify the widths of labels and inputs in this example coming from the Bootstrap 4 website?

<form class="form-inline">
  <div class="form-group">
    <label for="exampleInputName2">Name</label>
    <input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleInputName2" placeholder="Jane Doe">
  </div>
  <div class="form-group">
    <label for="exampleInputEmail2">Email</label>
    <input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail2" placeholder="[email protected]">
  </div>
  <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Send invitation</button>
</form>

Any good and simple example would be welcome.

Thanks

Sylvain

you could also use the Bootstrap 4 width utilities : (.w-25, .w-50, .w-75, .w-100, .mw-100)

<input type="some_type" class="form-control w-25">

Delete xs from col-* class, for example change col-xs-2 into col-2. col-xs-* is for Bootstrap 3 and not BS 4.

To make the input takes all the available remaining width, set the input as 

display:flex;
flex-grow:1

Here's a simple example. Wrap it in a form element and you can add different inputs. Better to keep the col-xs- classes uniform so that they line up correctly

Make sure you have added the bootstrap css and js to your site. 

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-alpha.3/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-MIwDKRSSImVFAZCVLtU0LMDdON6KVCrZHyVQQj6e8wIEJkW4tvwqXrbMIya1vriY" crossorigin="anonymous">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-alpha.3/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-ux8v3A6CPtOTqOzMKiuo3d/DomGaaClxFYdCu2HPMBEkf6x2xiDyJ7gkXU0MWwaD" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<div class="container">
  <form>
    <div class="form-group row">
      <label for="name1" class="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Name</label>
      <div class="col-sm-10">
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="name1" placeholder=".col-sm-10">
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group row">
      <label for="name2" class="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Other Name</label>
      <div class="col-sm-10">
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="name2" placeholder=".col-sm-10">
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group row">
      <label for="name3" class="col-sm-2 col-form-label">Third Name</label>
      <div class="col-sm-10">
        <input type="text" class="form-control" id="name3" placeholder=".col-sm-10">
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group row">
      <div class="offset-sm-2 col-sm-10">
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  </form>
</div>

See the example below, if you want to use bootstrap v4 grid widths along with the form-inline

<form class="form-inline">
  <div class="form-group row">
    <div class="col-md-5">
      <p class="form-control-static">[email protected]</p>
    </div>
    <div class="col-md-5">
      <input type="password" class="form-control" id="inputPassword2" placeholder="Password">
    </div>
    <div class="col-md-2">
      <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Confirm identity</button>
    </div>
  </div>
</form>
