Notes

A list of changes that are made to the default phoenix template.

• Added postcss-loader to webpack.config.js
• Added [email protected] and config PurgeCSS to watch for template files under lib/**/*.eex
• Added @tailwindcss/aspect-ratio, @tailwindcss/forms, and @tailwindcss/typography for those who are using tailwindui
• Removed CSS styling included in the default template
