This repo contains a collection of packages that makes the integration of Tailwind with CSS-in-JS libraries easier.

You may have encountered some of these problems when using Tailwind with CSS-in-JS libraries.

• You have to use PurgeCSS to get the minimal CSS file, PurgeCSS relies on string matching
• No warnings when misspelling, refactoring or using a class that doesn't exist
• Inline classes can get very long and hard to read
• You have to specify the variants for utility classes in tailwind.config.js

• Solve all of the above problems
• Automatically compatible with latest Tailwind version 2.X.X
• New syntax to apply variants to multiple utility classes md:hover[text-xs font-normal]
• Reacts to changes in made in tailwind.config.js
• Great developer experience with VS Code extension or typescript-xwind-plugin
• No runtime impact all transformations happen during build time
• Plugins to support any/your favorite CSS-in-JS syntax

• All utility and component classes
• All variant utility classes enabled
• Full support for custom classes and tailwind.config.js customization
• Supports Tailwind plugins (@tailwindcss/typography, @tailwindcss/forms, ...)

xwind uses a babel plugin that transforms Tailwind classes into CSS object styles or a classes string. The CSS object styles output can be used with your favorite CSS-in-JS library like emotion, styled-components ... The classes string output can be used with the xwind cli to generate a minimal css file of the used Tailwind classes.

import xw from "xwind";

const styles = xw`text-red-100 hover:text-green-100 hover:bg-blue-200`;
// OR (with custom array syntax)
const styles = xw`text-red-100 hover[text-green-100 bg-blue-200]`;

Transforms by default into Postcss-js / JSS compatible syntax:

const styles = {
  "--text-opacity": "1",
  color: ["#fde8e8", "rgba(253, 232, 232, var(--text-opacity))"],
  "&:hover": {
    "--text-opacity": "1",
    "--bg-opacity": "1",
    color: ["#def7ec", "rgba(222, 247, 236, var(--text-opacity))"],
    backgroundColor: ["#c3ddfd", "rgba(195, 221, 253, var(--bg-opacity))"],
  },
};

Transform to CSS string syntax with the css plugin:

const styles = `
  --text-opacity: 1;
  color: #fde8e8;
  color: rgba(253, 232, 232, var(--text-opacity));
  &:hover {
    --text-opacity: 1;
    --bg-opacity: 1;
    color: #def7ec;
    color: rgba(222, 247, 236, var(--text-opacity));
    background-color: #c3ddfd;
    background-color: rgba(195, 221, 253, var(--bg-opacity));
  }
`;

objectstyles plugins make it possible to support any CSS-in-JS library syntax.

import xw from "xwind";

const styles = xw`text-red-100 hover:text-green-100 hover:bg-blue-200`;
// OR (with custom array syntax)
const styles = xw`text-red-100 hover[text-green-100 bg-blue-200]`;

Transforms into a classes string:

const styles = "text-red-100 hover:text-green-100 hover:bg-blue-200";

Generate the css output with with the xwind cli:

npx run xwind

Output file "/src/styles/xwind.css":

/*! Generated with xwind | https://github.com/arthie/xwind */
.hover\:bg-blue-200:hover {
  --tw-bg-opacity: 1;
  background-color: rgba(191, 219, 254, var(--tw-bg-opacity));
}
.text-red-100 {
  --tw-text-opacity: 1;
  color: rgba(254, 226, 226, var(--tw-text-opacity));
}
.hover\:text-green-100:hover {
  --tw-text-opacity: 1;
  color: rgba(220, 252, 231, var(--tw-text-opacity));
}

This package is a typescript language service plugin that adds editor support for xwind tagged template syntax: xw`...` or tw`...`

This extension activates typescript-xwind-plugin inside VS Code's Typescript language service.

Want to create Tailwind tools with javascript? Have a look at these packages they make the xwind and typescript-xwind-plugin possible.

The class-utilities package contains flexible utilities to compose and parse Tailwind classes.

The core package uses Tailwind internals to extracts/generate all the data you could want from Tailwind. It provides the data in a structured way with the necessary utilities to create and manipulate this data.
