UI Components

TailwindComponents was created to help developers rapidly prototype and build websites with Tailwind CSS. It offers a collection of pre-designed components that can be copied into projects and customized with Tailwind utilities, speeding up the development process.

TailwindComponents is a community-driven library of free and open-source Tailwind CSS components and templates. It provides ready-to-use UI elements like buttons, cards, navigation bars, forms, and full-page templates.

Installation

Error Handling

Component layout broken: Ensure Tailwind CSS is correctly included and class names are not modified incorrectly.
Not responsive on mobile: Verify that responsive Tailwind classes (sm:, md:, lg:) are applied appropriately.
Styles not applied: Check that your Tailwind configuration includes all required plugins and that PurgeCSS is not removing necessary classes.

Best Practices

Customize Tailwind utility classes to match your project’s design system.

Combine multiple components to build full-page templates quickly.

Check responsiveness on different screen sizes.

Use semantic HTML for accessibility and SEO benefits.

Keep components modular to allow easy updates or swaps.
