Tailwind CSS Classes Not Working

This repository demonstrates a common issue encountered when using Tailwind CSS: classes not being applied to HTML elements. The problem stems from misconfigurations within the tailwind.config.js file, leading to Tailwind's inability to process the necessary directives. The solution involves double-checking and correcting the content array in the configuration file to ensure it accurately reflects the locations of your HTML and CSS files. Additionally, clearing the browser cache often resolves persistent issues.

Setup:

1. Clone the repository
2. Run npm install
3. Run npm start (if a dev server is included)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open index.html in a browser.
2. Observe that the bg-red-500 and p-4 classes do not apply any styling to the div element, even if the Tailwind CSS file was correctly generated.

Solution:

The solution involves verifying the file paths within the content array in the tailwind.config.js file. Ensure that the paths correctly point to your HTML and component files that use Tailwind classes. Clearing your browser's cache can also help resolve lingering issues.
