Syntax
Tailwind
<element class="utility-class1 utility-class2 ...">Content</element>
Tailwind uses small utility classes like bg-blue-500 or p-4 to style elements.
You add these classes directly to HTML elements to change colors, spacing, fonts, and more.
Examples
This button has a blue background, white text, padding, and rounded corners.
Tailwind
<button class="bg-blue-500 text-white p-2 rounded">Click me</button>
This text is centered, larger, and bold.
Tailwind
<div class="text-center text-lg font-bold">Hello World</div>
This paragraph has margin around it and gray colored text.
Tailwind
<p class="m-4 text-gray-700">Paragraph with margin and gray text.</p>
