I'm using vite 0.16.6 and wanted to migrated a vuepress site to using vite.
However I was unsure how to configure vite to using tailwindcss.
in my index.css
@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;
#app {
font-family: Avenir, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
text-align: center;
color: #2c3e50;
margin-top: 60px;
}
After some digging, looks like that we have to include a postcss.config.js in the root directory of the application
module.exports = {
plugins: [
// ...
require('tailwindcss'),
require('autoprefixer'),
// ...
]
}
yarn add tailwindcss @tailwindcss/typography @tailwindcss/ui -D
yarn tailwind init note : you can use npm
crate file : postcss.config.js and add :
module.exports={
plugins: [
require('tailwindcss'),
require('autoprefixer'),
]
}
Replace the contents of src/index.css file with:
@import "tailwindcss/base";
@import "tailwindcss/components";
@import "tailwindcss/utilities";
I wrote a vite tailwind plugin https://github.com/axe-me/vite-plugin-tailwind
it enabled the jit compiler by default and it also have a tailwind config viewer
If you want to create a vite project that includes tailwind, the create-vite-tailwind initializer package is what you want.
$ npm create-vite-tailwind
...
$ npm run dev
