Errors and fixes

The failures you are most likely to hit, and what actually resolves them.

Ensure Tailwind CSS is correctly included and class names are not modified incorrectly.

Components overlapping
Verify container widths, padding, and margin classes to maintain spacing and alignment.

Best practices

  • Combine multiple Tailblocks sections to assemble full pages quickly.
  • Customize colors and spacing using Tailwind utility classes.
