I have this html:
<div class="container h-screen w-screen">
<div class="navBar h-7"></div>
<div class="content-container"></div>
</div>
I have set the .navBar's height to h-7. Now I want to set .content-container's height to 100vh-(h-7).
How can I use calc() to set it?
If you are using v2.x, add mode: 'jit' to your tailwind.config.js (no mode: 'jit' needed in tailwind v3)
module.exports = {
mode: 'jit',
....
};
And use like this: (Without space!)
class="w-[calc(100%+2rem)]"
It will produce:
.w-\[calc\(100\%\+2rem\)\] {
width: calc(100% + 2rem);
}
We can use the theme variables as well:
h-[calc(100%-theme(space.24))]
Now we can use an underscore _ instead of whitespaces:
<script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script>
<div class="h-20 w-[calc(100%_-_10rem)] bg-yellow-200"></div>Use the theme() function to access your Tailwind config values using dot notation.
This can be a useful alternative to @apply when you want to reference a value from your theme configuration for only part of a declaration:
.content-container {
height: calc(100vh - theme('spacing.7'));
}
