I am in no hurry to use Tailwind V4 but look around anyway. Here are some links that can give some inspiration… Those are not guides, just for getting some ideas how people do it: [image] GitHub - odhyp/hugo-tailwindcss-starter: Starter project for Hugo Website with TailwindCSS S…

NO. That’s why it is in the documentation.

Thanks a lot for sharing my project :beers:

Welcome. Maybe you can do a tutorial for the minimum setup. That would be helpful.

I recently upgraded my site to v4 and wrote about the process in this blog post . Hope it helps.

The current recommended setup is documented here: [image] css.TailwindCSS Processes the given resource with the Tailwind CSS CLI.

I’m quite new to hugo as well as tailwind and I’m a bid confused, if the css.TailwindCSS documentation requires css.PostCSS as well to be installed and configure, as there is a reference in the required hugo.toml build.cachebusters configuration?

[image] andrelohmann: documentation requires css.PostCSS Can you point to where it says that?

Thanks for the links. Was just thinking about picking up tailwind now that v4 is out and it looks like it plays happily with Hugo.
