Installation
Setting up Tailwind CSS in a Meteor project.
01
Start by creating a new Meteor project if you don't have one set up already. The most common approach is to use the Meteor CLI .
Terminal
npx meteor create my-projectcd my-project
02
Install @tailwindcss/postcss and its peer dependencies via npm.
Terminal
npm install tailwindcss @tailwindcss/postcss postcss postcss-load-config
03
Create a postcss.config.mjs file in the root of your project and add the @tailwindcss/postcss plugin to your PostCSS configuration.
postcss.config.mjs
export default { plugins: { "@tailwindcss/postcss": {}, },};
04
Add an @import for Tailwind CSS to your ./client/main.css file.
main.css
@import "tailwindcss";
05
Run your build process with npm run start.
Terminal
npm run start
06
Start using Tailwind’s utility classes to style your content.
