# @astrojs/tailwind 💨
|
|
|
|
This **[Astro integration][astro-integration]** brings [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) to your Astro project.
|
|
|
|
Tailwind brings utility CSS classes for fonts, colors, layouts, transforms, and more to every Astro page or [UI component](https://docs.astro.build/en/core-concepts/framework-components/) in your project. It also includes extensive theming options for unifying your styles.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
There are two ways to add integrations to your project. Let's try the most convenient option first!
|
|
|
|
### (experimental) `astro add` command
|
|
|
|
Astro includes a CLI tool for adding first party integrations: `astro add`. This command will:
|
|
1. (Optionally) Install all necessary dependencies and peer dependencies
|
|
2. (Also optionally) Update your `astro.config.*` file to apply this integration
|
|
|
|
To install `@astrojs/tailwind`, run the following from your project directory and follow the prompts:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Using NPM
|
|
npx astro add tailwind
|
|
# Using Yarn
|
|
yarn astro add tailwind
|
|
# Using PNPM
|
|
pnpx astro add tailwind
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you run into any hiccups, [feel free to log an issue on our GitHub](https://github.com/withastro/astro/issues) and try the manual installation steps below.
|
|
|
|
### Install dependencies manually
|
|
|
|
First, install the `@astrojs/tailwind` integration like so:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
npm install @astrojs/tailwind
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, apply this integration to your `astro.config.*` file using the `integrations` property:
|
|
|
|
__astro.config.mjs__
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import tailwind from '@astrojs/tailwind';
|
|
|
|
export default {
|
|
// ...
|
|
integrations: [tailwind()],
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
Tailwind's utility classes should be ready-to-use with zero config, including [preprocessor setup](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/using-with-preprocessors) and [production optimization](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/optimizing-for-production). Head to the [Tailwind docs](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/utility-first) to learn all of the options and features available!
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Custom Tailwind Config File
|
|
|
|
Add your own `tailwind.config.(js|cjs|mjs)` file to the base of your project, and this integration will respect it. This can be useful for setting a [custom theme](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/configuration) or providing other configuration?
|
|
|
|
### config.path
|
|
|
|
You can give a different config file location using this integration's `config.path` option. If `config.path` is relative, it will be resolved relative to the root.
|
|
|
|
Changing `config.path` is well supported in Astro, but not recommended overall since it can cause problems with other Tailwind integrations, like the official Tailwind VSCode extension.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// astro.config.mjs
|
|
import tailwind from '@astrojs/tailwind';
|
|
|
|
export default {
|
|
integrations: [tailwind({
|
|
// Example: Provide a custom path to a Tailwind config file
|
|
config: { path: './custom-config.js' },
|
|
})],
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### config.applyBaseStyles
|
|
|
|
By default, the integration imports a basic `base.css` file on every page of your project. This basic CSS file includes the three main `@tailwind` directives:
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
/* The integration's default injected base.css file */
|
|
@tailwind base;
|
|
@tailwind components;
|
|
@tailwind utilities;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To disable this default behavior, set `config.applyBaseStyles` to `false`. This can be useful if you need to define your own `base.css` file (to include a [`@layer` directive](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/functions-and-directives#layer), for example). This can also be useful if you do not want `base.css` to be imported on every page of your project.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// astro.config.mjs
|
|
export default {
|
|
integrations: [tailwind({
|
|
// Example: Disable injecting a basic `base.css` import on every page.
|
|
// Useful if you need to define and/or import your own custom `base.css`.
|
|
config: { applyBaseStyles: false },
|
|
})],
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
