We use it in Tailwind CSS v4 for pill-shaped borders: .rounded-full { border-radius: calc(1px * infinity); } ...as opposed to what everyone has done historically, which is pick som…

Thanks! It's a paid feature because we just spent around $250,000 developing the library. Couldn't have built it if we were just going to give it away and maintain it forever for f…

We are still healthy and profitable but revenue is down about 60% from peak, and continuing to trend down (I think mostly due to AI and open-source alternatives to the things we've…

Hey! The job postings say Eastern (UTC-5) to Central European (UTC+1) — Eastern is the American east coast. Most important thing is overlap from around 9am – 12pm Eastern, so open …

Tailwind Labs ( https://tailwindcss.com/ ) | Remote (Americas/Europe) | Full-time We’re hiring a Design Engineer and Staff Software Engineer to work on Tailwind CSS, Headless UI, a…

Don't you need to use npm to install DaisyUI though? If you have to install third party plugins using node already to me the solution is to use our actual node CLI instead of the s…

We considered it but it felt too magical to make any CSS variable under `:root` automatically drive the existence of utility classes. Putting things under a custom at-rule like `@t…

It'll likely embed Node I'm afraid — the vast majority of Tailwind is written in JS so we'd have to rewrite all of that in Rust just for the standalone CLI, and migrating the entir…

You can’t do things like hover styles, media queries, etc. with `style=`. Re: separating presentation from page structure, Tailwind is designed around the opinion that that whole i…

One thing worth noting is that & substitutes for `:is(...)` in spirit under the hood, which means there are some significant behavior differences between native CSS nesting and Sas…

The stylesheets for CSS Zen Garden examples are more tightly coupled to the HTML than any other CSS I've ever seen in my life. They literally have no use against any other block of…

I've been following Jarred's progress on this on Twitter for the last several months and the various performance benchmarks he's shared are really impressive: https://twitter.com/j…

We get an unbelievable amount of spam in the Tailwind CSS repo, especially in Discussions. Usually it’s people posting some Markov chain looking sentence to make it seem somewhat r…

Yep, house on my street was listed for $950k a few weeks ago and sold for almost $1.4m. In my area (Kitchener/Waterloo), every house is selling for $250k-$500k above asking.

This isn't true — the native 1600 nits mode only uses 1600 nits for HDR content. Regular content/OS UI/etc is still limited to much less brightness. Check out this HDR YouTube vide…

Semantic HTML is about using the write HTML tags for the right things, like , , etc. The strings you put inside the class attribute are completely orthogonal to this — Tailwind has…

You can break it across as few or as many lines as you like, just like with CSS. .btn { display: inline-flex; justify-content: center; padding: 8px 16px; border: 1px solid transpar…

It's fewer than half as many characters as writing the same thing in CSS: .btn { display: inline-flex; justify-content: center; padding: 8px 16px; border: 1px solid transparent; bo…

Tailwind author here! Do you have an example of a site using the new engine that is shipping a massive CSS file where most of the styles are unused on most pages? The Tailwind webs…

Haha correct, I was just explaining why inline styles aren't a suitable alternative to Tailwind. Tailwind can definitely do all that stuff!

The biggest issue with inline styles is you can't use media queries or pseudo-classes like hover, focus, etc, which effectively means you can't build anything of substance with the…

Creator of Tailwind here — what you're seeing here actually is a best effort attempt to be consistent and predictable. Keys in the config file generally correspond with the CSS pro…

We work this way as well and it is wonderful. We've been doing Shape Up since July 2020 and have yet to fail to ship what we shape for each 6 week cycle, and while there's sometime…

Creator of Tailwind here — if you don’t want to go deep into JS tooling and really just care about spitting out a CSS file, it's a lot simpler to just use our CLI tool: https://tai…

Hey thank you! 3 of 4 of my educational products actually predate Tailwind — I was a millionaire from that business before even releasing Tailwind v0.1.0. Refactoring UI came after…
