Tailwind CSS

@lazarv/react-server is compatible with Tailwind CSS. You can use Tailwind CSS the same way you use it in a standard React project with Vite, using the PostCSS and Autoprefixer plugins.

You can install Tailwind CSS in your project by running the following command:

pnpm add -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer
pnpm dlx tailwindcss init

Add Tailwind CSS to your postcss.config.js file:

module.exports = {
  plugins: {
    tailwindcss: {},
    autoprefixer: {},
  }
};

Configure your template paths in the tailwind.config.js file:

module.exports = {
  content: [
    "./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}",
  ],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
};

Update or extend the content array in the tailwind.config.js file to include the paths to your components, pages, and other files including Tailwind CSS classes.

Add the following lines to your main.css file:

@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

You can now use Tailwind CSS in any of your React Server Components or client components.

export default function HomePage() {
  return <h1 className="text-2xl font-bold">Hello World</h1>;
}

You don't need to do anything more. Start your development server and you can see the styles applied.

pnpm react-server

Your styles will be also applied during a production build.

pnpm react-server build
