custom CSS and speeding up the design process.
This Tailwind CSS Cheatsheet is here to help you

streamline your styling workflow! 👉
Use text-lg for font size, font-bold for bold text, and
text-gray-800 for color.
Use flex to create a flex container, justify-center
centers horizontally, and items-center centers
vertically.
Using grid makes a grid layout, grid-cols-2 sets two
columns, and gap-4 adds spacing.
The m-4 class adds margin, and p-6 adds padding for
an easy spacing setup.
The bg-blue-500 class sets a blue background,
border-gray-300 for border color, and rounded-lg for
rounded corners.
Responsive font sizes: text-xs, text-sm, text-md, and
text-lg adjust font size automatically at various
screen sizes to keep text readable across devices.
Change button color based on interaction:
hover:bg-gray-700, focus:bg-gray-600, and
active:bg-gray-500.
The relative class creates a containing context, and
absolute positions the inner div at the top-0 i.e 0
pixels away from top & right-0 i.e 0 pixels away from
right.
The shadow-lg class is used for a large shadow, and
the other class opacity-75 is used to make the
element partially transparent.
The dark:bg-black and dark:text-white adapt styles
when dark mode is active.
With Tailwind CSS, styling your web projects becomes
faster and more efficient, helping you create responsive
and modern designs without writing lengthy CSS.
This cheatsheet gives you a quick look at essential
Tailwind classes to streamline your development
