Tailwind CSS Class Application Issue

This repository demonstrates a problem where Tailwind CSS classes fail to apply correctly. The expected behavior is that a div element has a red background, which changes to blue on hover. However, the styles aren't applied as expected.

Problem

The provided code includes a div with Tailwind CSS classes bg-red-500 and hover:bg-blue-700. Despite proper setup (assumed), the classes do not produce the anticipated visual effect. The hover state does not trigger the color change.

Solution

A potential solution involves verifying the following:

1. Tailwind Configuration: Ensure Tailwind's configuration file (tailwind.config.js) is correctly configured and includes the necessary paths to your CSS files.
2. CSS Import: Confirm that the generated Tailwind CSS file is correctly imported into your main CSS file.
3. Purge Unused Styles (if using): If you are using Tailwind's purge feature, ensure that the class names are included in your HTML templates so they aren't purged.
4. Browser Caching: Clear your browser's cache or try a different browser to rule out caching issues.
5. Conflicting Styles: Check for any conflicting CSS rules that might be overriding Tailwind's styles.
6. Typographical Errors: Double-check the spelling and casing of your Tailwind classes for any typos.
7. Parent Element Styles: Ensure that parent elements do not have styles that could inadvertently be affecting the child element.
