A practical guide to using Tailwind, a utility-first CSS framework

Automatically translated from Japanese. See the Japanese original for the original wording.

Tailwind CSS is a framework that styles your UI by combining utility classes.

Custom design is easy

Unlike traditional CSS frameworks, the big advantage here is that you can create your own design more easily.

You’re not locked into existing components—you can achieve the exact design you’re aiming for.

html

<div class="text-sm md:text-base lg:text-lg">
  Responsive text
</div>

With breakpoint prefixes, you can handle responsive behavior easily.

html

<div class="bg-white dark:bg-gray-900">
  Content that supports dark mode
</div>

Just use the dark: prefix, and you can support dark mode just like that.

With Tailwind CSS, you can style things efficiently and flexibly.
