TailwindCSS with Sapper and Svelte

What ?

An initial template with Sapper 0.28.0, Svelte 3.17.3 and Tailwind CSS 1.8.6 updated to September 25th, 2020

Why ?

Because there are a lot of posts and reference working but with old versions. This is only another alternative more, trying to use newer versions (that soon will be old too).

How ?

Run the commands:

npx degit csaltos/sapper-svelte-with-tailwindcss app1
cd app1
npm i
npm run dev

And open the browser at http://localhost:3000 to see a Sapper page done with Svelte using a Tailwind CSS sample.

Where ?

At https://github.com/csaltos/sapper-svelte-with-tailwindcss you will find the source code as a reference which is based on the original Sapper with Svelte template.

Please take special attention to the commit at dc251b6 which contains the exact change details to activate Tailwind CSS.
