How to use Tailwind with any CSS framework
Tailwind is great, but creating everything from scratch is annoying. A nice base of components which can be extended with tailwind would be great. There are a few tailwind frameworks like Flowbite, Daisy Ui, but I like Bulma, PicoCSS and Bootstrap.
We will use in this example Remix, same steps will need to be made for any other framework using vite.
npm install -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer
Prepare tailwind files:
npx tailwindcss init --ts -p
In tailwind.config.ts
add paths (content) where react components will be and add the prefix config so tailwind classes won't conflict with bulma (or bootstrap, picss other css framework).
// tailwind.config.tsimport type { Config } from 'tailwindcss'export default { content: ['./app/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}'], prefix: "t-", theme: { extend: {}, }, plugins: [],} satisfies Config
Install BulmaCSS with npm:
npm install bulma
Now, with Bulma and Tailwind installed and configured let's plug it into our app.
Next to app/root.tsx
(or in other frameworks the main component/entrypoint of your app) create a styles.css
file and add the following:
/* app/styles.css */@import "bulma/css/bulma.min.css";@tailwind base;@tailwind components;@tailwind utilities;
Here, we import bulma css from node packages and the tailwind stuff.
In root.tsx
file let's import the css file created:
// app/root.tsximport type { LinksFunction } from "@remix-run/node";import stylesheet from "~/styles.css?url";export const links: LinksFunction = () => [ { rel: "stylesheet", href: stylesheet },]
And, now we can use Bulma components and when that's not enough add some Tailwind magic.
// app/routes/_index.tsxexport default function SomeReactComponent() { return ( <div className="container"> <h1 className="title is-1">Bulma title</h1> <p className="t-text-3xl">Tailwind big text</p> </div> )}
