# Tailwind Labs Tailwind CSS v4 Best Practices

Comprehensive performance optimization guide for Tailwind CSS v4 applications, maintained by Tailwind Labs. Contains 42 rules across 8 categories, prioritized by impact to guide automated refactoring and code generation.

## When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:
- Configuring Tailwind CSS v4 build tooling (Vite plugin, PostCSS, CLI)
- Writing or migrating styles using v4's CSS-first approach
- Optimizing CSS bundle size and build performance
- Implementing responsive designs with breakpoints or container queries
- Setting up theming with @theme directive and design tokens

## Rule Categories by Priority

| Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix |
|----------|----------|--------|--------|
| 1 | Build Configuration | CRITICAL | `build-` |
| 2 | CSS Generation | CRITICAL | `gen-` |
| 3 | Bundle Optimization | HIGH | `bundle-` |
| 4 | Utility Patterns | HIGH | `util-` |
| 5 | Component Architecture | MEDIUM-HIGH | `comp-` |
| 6 | Theming & Design Tokens | MEDIUM | `theme-` |
| 7 | Responsive & Adaptive | MEDIUM | `resp-` |
| 8 | Animation & Transitions | LOW-MEDIUM | `anim-` |

## How to Use

Run in the project root first:

```bash
npx -y @pymodel/react-frontend-skills detect                 # installed vs. targeted versions
npx -y @pymodel/react-frontend-skills scan --skill tailwind  # deprecated APIs → rule IDs
```

Read `references/<rule-id>.md` for each rule above that matches the task and for each `scan` hit: why it matters, then incorrect vs. correct code.
