Scaffold for vite react project with tailwind

A template to start a frontend project with my current favorite stack.

Template

Create the vite project

npm create vite@latest

# project_name 
# framework: react
# variant: react-ts

npm install
npm run dev

Install tailwind

npm install -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer

npx tailwindcss init -p

Update tailwind.config.js

content: [
    "./index.html",
    "./src/**/*.{vue,js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
  ],

add ./src/index.css

@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

Cleanup react scaffold

• remvoe image files
• Updare App.tsx and use tailwind with App.css

.app-title {
  @apply text-3xl font-bold underline
}

(
    <div>
        <h1 className="app-title">
        Hello world!

    </div>
)
