Installation

Now we have a great playground, you can try it online before installing it.

npm install svelte-windicss-preprocess --save-dev

Configuration

Svelte

Add svelte-windicss-preprocess to your rollup.config.js.

// rollup.config.js
// ...
export default {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    svelte({
      // svelte-windicss-preprocess
      preprocess: require('svelte-windicss-preprocess').preprocess({
        config: 'tailwind.config.js', // tailwind config file path (optional)
        compile: true, // false: interpretation mode; true: compilation mode
        prefix: 'windi-', // set compilation mode style prefix
        globalPreflight: true, // set preflight style is global or scoped
        globalUtility: true, // set utility style is global or scoped
      }),
      // ...
    }),
  ],
  // ...
};

Sveltekit

Add svelte-windicss-preprocess to your svelte.config.cjs.

For now, sveltekit has an issue of setting the preprocessor. Make sure your snowpack.config.cjs is consistent with our example before setting.

// svelte.config.cjs
module.exports = {
  preprocess: require('svelte-windicss-preprocess').preprocess({
    // uncomment this, if you need a config file
    // config: 'tailwind.config.js',
    compile: false,
    prefix: 'windi-',
    globalPreflight: true,
    globalUtility: true,
  }),
  kit: {
    adapter: '@sveltejs/adapter-node',
    target: '#svelte',
  },
};

with Typescript

// svelte.config.cjs
const sveltePreprocess = require('svelte-preprocess');
module.exports = {
  preprocess: [
    sveltePreprocess.typescript(),
    require('svelte-windicss-preprocess').preprocess({
      // uncomment this, if you need a config file
      // config: 'tailwind.config.js',
      compile: false,
      prefix: 'windi-',
      globalPreflight: true,
      globalUtility: true,
    }),
  ],
  kit: {
    adapter: '@sveltejs/adapter-node',
    target: '#svelte',
  },
};

Sapper(rollup)

Add svelte-windicss-preprocess to your rollup.config.js.

// rollup.config.js
// ...
export default {
  // ...
  client: {
    input: config.client.input(),
    output: config.client.output(),
    plugins: [
      // ...
      svelte({
        // svelte-windicss-preprocess
        preprocess: require('svelte-windicss-preprocess').preprocess({
          config: 'tailwind.config.js',     // tailwind config file path
          compile: true,                    // false: interpretation mode; true: compilation mode
          prefix: 'windi-',                 // set compilation mode style prefix
          globalPreflight: true,            // set preflight style is global or scoped
          globalUtility: true,              // set utility style is global or scoped
        }),
        compilerOptions: {
          // ...
        }
      }),
      // ...
    ]
  // ...
  }
  server: {
    input: config.server.input(),
    output: config.server.output(),
    plugins: [
      // ...
      svelte({
        // svelte-windicss-preprocess
        preprocess: require('svelte-windicss-preprocess').preprocess({
          config: 'tailwind.config.js',      // tailwind config file path
          compile: true,                     // false: interpretation mode; true: compilation mode
          prefix: 'windi-',                  // set compilation mode style prefix
          globalPreflight: true,             // set preflight style is global or scoped
          globalUtility: true,               // set utility style is global or scoped
        }),
        compilerOptions: {
          // ...
        },
      }),
      // ...
    ]
  }
  // ...
}

          use: {
            loader: 'svelte-loader',
            options: {
              // ... other options
              // svelte-windicss-preprocess
              preprocess: require('svelte-windicss-preprocess').preprocess({
                config: 'tailwind.config.js', // tailwind config file path
                compile: true, // false: interpretation mode; true: compilation mode
                prefix: 'windi-', // set compilation mode style prefix
                globalPreflight: true, // set preflight style is global or scoped
                globalUtility: true, // set utility style is global or scoped
              }),
            },
          },
        },
        // ...
      ],
    },
  },
};

Basic Usage

You can write any tailwindcss classes in your .svelte files.

<script>
  // ...
</script>

<div
  class="bg-white rounded-xl mx-auto max-w-sm space-y-2 shadow-md py-8 px-8 sm:flex sm:space-y-0 sm:space-x-6 sm:py-4 sm:items-center"
>
  <img
    class="rounded-full mx-auto h-24 block sm:flex-shrink-0 sm:mx-0"
    src="/img/erin-lindford.jpg"
    alt="Woman's Face"
  />
  <div class="space-y-2 text-center sm:text-left">
    <div class="space-y-0.5">
      <p class="font-semibold text-lg text-black">Erin Lindford</p>
      <p class="font-medium text-gray-500">Product Engineer</p>
    </div>
    <button
      class="border rounded-full font-semibold border-purple-200 text-sm py-1 px-4 text-purple-600 hover:border-transparent hover:bg-purple-600 hover:text-white focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-purple-600 focus:ring-offset-2"
    >
      Message
    </button>
  </div>
</div>

<style>
  /* ... */
</style>

Compilation mode

This is not css-in-js, windicss only merges and compiles the tailwind classes of each line into a new class. You can try to compile (npm run build) and check the generated css file.

<div class="windi-15wa4me">
  <img class="windi-1q7lotv" src="/img/erin-lindford.jpg" alt="Woman's Face" />
  <div class="windi-7831z4">
    <div class="windi-x3f008">
      <p class="windi-2lluw6">Erin Lindford</p>
      <p class="windi-1caa1b7">Product Engineer</p>
    </div>
    <button class="windi-d2pog2">Message</button>
  </div>
</div>

/* ... */
.windi-1q7lotv {
  border-radius: 9999px;
  display: block;
  height: 6rem;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
}
/* ... */
@media (min-width: 640px) {
  /* ... */
  .windi-1q7lotv {
    flex-shrink: 0;
    margin-left: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
  }
/* ... */

Interpretation mode

Interpretation mode will not modify your classes, it will only compile the original tailwind classes just like tailwindcss, but it is minimized and has native cross-browser support.

/* ... */
.py-8 {
  padding-top: 2rem;
  padding-bottom: 2rem;
}
/* ... */
@media (min-width: 640px) {
  /* ... */
  .sm\:items-center {
    align-items: center;
  }
  .sm\:mx-0 {
    margin-left: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
  }
  .sm\:py-4 {
    padding-top: 1rem;
    padding-bottom: 1rem;
  }
  /* ... */
}

Using tailwind directives

<style>
  .testApply {
    @apply pt-6 text-base leading-6 font-bold sm:text-lg sm:leading-7;
  }

  @screen sm {
    ul {
      @apply bg-gray-100 p-2 rounded-lg;
    }
  }
</style>

Setup VSCode Extension

If you are using Svelte for VS Code vscode extension, I believe most people are using it. You will need to add "vetur.validation.style": false to your configuration file.

Hit ctrl-shift-p or cmd-shift-p on mac, type open settings, and select Preferences: Open Settings (JSON). Add "vetur.validation.style": false to settings.json then save it.

Then you will need to tell svelte-vscode to restart the svelte language server in order to pick up a new configuration.

Hit ctrl-shift-p or cmd-shift-p on mac, type svelte restart, and select Svelte: Restart Language Server. Any errors you were seeing should now go away and you're now all set up!

Features

tw is an optional replacement attribute of class, The className in tw will be merged into the class attribute after compilation.
Group: You can also write groups in all the attributes mentioned above, such as class="font-meidum sm:hover:(font-bold bg-gray-200)". This is a native feature supported by windicss.
Unrestricted build: such as bg-hex-1c1c1e p-3.2 p-3rem p-4px w-10/11 bg-$custom-variable ...
[Using tailwind directives], such as @apply, @screen, @variants.
States attribute: such as sm md lg xl xxl focus hover dark ... after applid media rules then also will be merged into the class attribute. (Attributes like sm:hover are not available because they may be rarely used and slow down the parsing speed.)
Customize: support tailwind.config.js.
For more details, please refer to windicss.
