Enable PostCSS support

In your rspack.config.js file, enable the PostCSS loader. See the documentation for more information.

rspack.config.ts

export default defineConfig({  // ...  module: {    rules: [      {        test: /\.css$/,        use: ["postcss-loader"],        type: "css",      },      // ...    ],  },}

04

Configure PostCSS Plugins

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": {},  },};

05

Import Tailwind CSS

Add an @import to ./src/index.css that imports Tailwind CSS.

index.css

@import "tailwindcss";

Start your build process

Run your build process with npm run dev.

Terminal
