eslint-plugin-tailwindcss

Rules enforcing best practices and consistency using Tailwind CSS v2.1.1

🎉 Since v1.5.0, the plugin will parse the tailwind.config.js file and use the correct values based on your own settings.

👍 Most of the new JIT mode features are also supported.

Installation

You'll first need to install ESLint:

$ npm i eslint --save-dev

Next, install eslint-plugin-tailwindcss:

$ npm i eslint-plugin-tailwindcss --save-dev

eslint-plugin-tailwindcss on npm

Usage

Add tailwindcss to the plugins section of your .eslintrc configuration file. You can omit the eslint-plugin- prefix:

{
  "plugins": ["tailwindcss"]
}

Configure the rules you want to use under the rules section.

{
  "rules": {
    "tailwindcss/classnames-order": 2,
    "tailwindcss/no-custom-classname": 2,
    "tailwindcss/no-contradicting-classname": 2
  }
}

Supported Rules

Learn more about each supported rules by reading their documentation:

classnames-order: order classnames by target properties then by variants ([size:][theme:][state:])
no-custom-classname: only allow classnames from Tailwind CSS
no-contradicting-classname: e.g. avoid p-2 p-3, different Tailwind CSS classnames (pt-2 & pt-3) but targeting the same property several times for the same variant.

Upcoming Rules

no-redundant-variant: e.g. avoid mx-5 sm:mx-5, no need to redefine mx in sm: variant as it uses the same value (5)

Alternatives

I wrote this plugin after searching for existing tools which perform the same task but didn't satisfied my needs:

eslint-plugin-tailwind, not bad but no support (yet) for variants sorting
Headwind, only works within Visual Studio Code
