@tailwindcss/forms

A plugin that provides a basic reset for form styles that makes form elements easy to override with utilities.

Installation

Note that @tailwindcss/forms is designed for Tailwind CSS v2.0.

Install the plugin from npm:

# Using npm
npm install @tailwindcss/forms

# Using Yarn
yarn add @tailwindcss/forms

Then add the plugin to your tailwind.config.js file:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    // ...
  },
  plugins: [
    require('@tailwindcss/forms'),
    // ...
  ],
}

Usage

All of the basic form elements you use will now have some simple default styles that are easy to override with utilities.

Currently we add basic utility-friendly form styles for the following form element types:

  • input[type='text']
  • input[type='password']
  • input[type='email']
  • input[type='number']
  • input[type='url']
  • input[type='date']
  • input[type='datetime-local']
  • input[type='month']
  • input[type='week']
  • input[type='time']
  • input[type='search']
  • input[type='tel']
  • input[type='checkbox']
  • input[type='radio']
  • select
  • select[multiple]
  • textarea

Note that for text inputs, you must add the type="text" attribute for these styles to take effect. This is a necessary trade-off to avoid relying on the overly greedy input selector and unintentionally styling elements we don't have solutions for yet, like input[type="range"] for example.

Every element has been normalized/reset to a simple visually consistent style that is easy to customize with utilities, even elements like <select> or <input type="checkbox"> that normally need to be reset with appearance: none and customized using custom CSS:

<!-- You can actually customize padding on a select element now: -->
<select class="px-4 py-3 rounded-full">
  <!-- ... -->
</select>

<!-- Or change a checkbox color using text color utilities: -->
<input type="checkbox" class="rounded text-pink-500" />

More customization examples and best practices coming soon.
