  • Is the default importmap method unrealistic in the most popular real world use cases?
    5 projects | /r/rails | 9 May 2023
    You can't use additional CSS packages (like Flowbite) with the official tailwindcss-rails gem. According to this answered issue, you should either give up importmap and use a bundler, or use a CSS file from CDN - which is not ideal (unnecessary classes won't be purged this way).

  • User notifications with Rails, Noticed, and Hotwire
    4 projects | dev.to | 21 Mar 2022
    Thanks to the magic of Rails, the scaffold generator gives us almost everything we need to start creating messages and associating them with users. Because we are using Tailwind via the tailwindcss-rails gem, the scaffold generator also includes some nice looking base styles too.
  • Pagination and infinite scrolling with Rails and the Hotwire stack
    7 projects | dev.to | 4 Feb 2022
    Because we are using Tailwind via the tailwindcss-rails gem, the scaffold generator applies some basic Tailwind styling to generated views, so we have nice looking Widget pages right out of the box.

  • Rails 7 Tailwind Scaffold Question
    3 projects | /r/rails | 23 Dec 2021
    When you generate an app with rails new --css=tailwind without a JS option, you get the tailwindcss-rails gem which includes the new scaffold generators. When you pass in a JavaScript option as well, you get Tailwind installed via cssbundling-rails, which does not include built-in generators since it offers more than just Tailwind as an option.

    A while back DHH decided to created a gem for easily installing TailwindCss into rails apps πŸ™ŒπŸ». This gem could be used to install Tailwind through the asset pipeline as well as using webpack. This changed later on as contributors wanted to focus their attention to what was the heart of the gem πŸ₯Ί.
