opam-tailwindcss

Tailwind CSS is a an utility-first CSS framework for rapidly building custom user interfaces.

This opam package wraps the standalone executable version of the Tailwind CSS 3 framework. These executables are platform specific. Upon installation, opam will automatically pick the correct executable for your platform and install it as a tailwindcss binary. Supported platforms are Linux arm64, Linux x64, macOS arm64, macOS x64, Windows arm64, and Windows x64.

Once installed, you can execute the binary with:

opam exec -- tailwindcss

Here is a dune rule that uses the installed binary to generate a CSS file:

(rule
  (target main.css)
  (deps
    (:config %{workspace_root}/tailwind.config.js)
    (:input src/ocamlorg_frontend/css/styles.css))
  (action
    (chdir
    %{workspace_root}
    (run tailwindcss -c %{config} -i %{input} -o %{target}))))
