Oh, the sweet allure of Tailwind CSS! It’s like that trendy cafe downtown everyone wants a piece of. The sleek, utility-first structure it brings to the table has made it a darling in the web development realm.

Enter WireUI components at Livewire-WireUI.com.

Tailwind CSS Meets Livewire: A Symphony of Productivity
The harmony between Tailwind CSS and Livewire is something akin to a well-orchestrated symphony.

To install simply
composer require wireui/wireui
Add the WireUI tag above Alpinejs script tag in your page layout:
<html>
<head>
...
<wireui:scripts />
<script src="//unpkg.com/alpinejs" defer></script>
</head>
</html>
Alternatively, you can use the equivalent Blade directive:
...
@wireUiScripts
<script src="//unpkg.com/alpinejs" defer></script>
...
Sometimes you need to pass extra html attributes to script tag, like the nonce attribute
@wireUiScripts(['nonce': 'csp-token'])
@wireUiScripts(['nonce': 'csp-token', 'foo' => true])
Add the following settings to your Tailwindcss config file, tailwind.config.js:
module.exports = {
...
presets: [
...
require('./vendor/wireui/wireui/tailwind.config.js')
],
content: [
...
'./vendor/wireui/wireui/resources/**/*.blade.php',
'./vendor/wireui/wireui/ts/**/*.ts',
'./vendor/wireui/wireui/src/View/**/*.php'
],
...
}
WireUI does not need any additional configuration, but you can publish the files and customize them to your preference.
php artisan vendor:publish --tag='wireui.config'
php artisan vendor:publish --tag='wireui.resources'
php artisan vendor:publish --tag='wireui.lang'
