tailwind-merge VS clsx

So the library I use is tailwind-merge, which is a class that eliminates conflicts between classes when using Tailwind. So I created the following utility function.

clsx is a tiny utility for constructing className strings conditionally, I use it in conjunction with tailwind-merge which merges Tailwind CSS classes without style conflicts.

I searched for a solution, and I found tailwind-merge which is written in JavaScript. Basically it finds conflicted classes and resolve the conflict. For example:

I would suggest you to use CVA and tailwind-merge.

Hey everyone! I built an open source library called tailwind-merge which helps with resolving style conflicts in CSS class strings. → https://github.com/dcastil/tailwind-merge

I used tailwind-merge and cva to build my UI component library Rewind-UI.

I use Tailwind + Next.js on most of my projects. Usually I add the following to the mix: - RadixUI+ tailwindcss-radix or HeadlessUI although I like Radix more - classnames - https://tailwindcss.com/blog/automatic-class-sorting-with-prettier - tailwind-merge - CSS Modules

I'm using Tailwind CSS and I'd like to integrate a library called tailwind-merge into my Vue app. I'd like the plugin to replace Vue's class appending behavior so that all components in my app have their Tailwind utility classes merged to prevent style conflicts. It may not be everyone's preferred solution to such a problem, but I think it's a very valid use cases for this sort of thing.

To make class-based Tailwind easy to use, we used the clsx library to help manipulate class names. However, using clsx and Tailwind together often doesn't work as intended.

clsx is a tiny utility for constructing className strings conditionally, I use it in conjunction with tailwind-merge which merges Tailwind CSS classes without style conflicts.

I am familiar with the library clsx although I have never used it personally. I don't often have the need for conditional classes and when I do it's usually an inline ternary expression in the style or className prop. Is that bad/good? Are there any other popular libraries other than clsx, or anti-patterns I should be aware of when doing conditional classes in React? Thanks fam

I use CLSX for all tailwind dynamic styles. Super simple, lightweight and now is almost part of every project I build haha

Clsx

https://github.com/lukeed/clsx “A tiny (228B) utility for constructing className strings conditionally.”

Then use something like clsx

For conditionally applying or removing classes, you should take a look at clsx.

clsx has better performance over the classnames package. That’s why it was created. Take a look at their benchmarks in the repo.

Hey, I'll have you know I have lots of fun using Tailwind with clsx =)
