This is my markdown. It should be reproducible. My Problem is that the first item does not get the spacing applied. Every other item does get the space applied. Am I doing something wrong here? I want ALL the items to have space.

Try

<div class="ml-4">
   <div>Item</div>
   <div>Item</div>
   ...etc.
</div>

Nice nuance find. space-x-4 is behaving as expected - it's for putting space between items horizontally, so the intended use case is all your divs are on the same line.

space-x-4 is just applying left and right margin to all items after the first
