The buttons carry btn btn-default, so a Bootstrap theme applies to
them without any work. Use button_class to give them a different
Bootstrap variant, size or shape:
rewind_buttons(button_class = "btn-primary")
rewind_buttons(button_class = "btn-outline-secondary btn-sm")
A variant that you add wins over btn-default, so the buttons take the
colours of the theme of your application. bslib::bs_theme() decides
what those colours are. rewind thus has no colours of its own to keep
in agreement with your application.
