Tailwind CSS Responsive Gallery Example
We're using flexand flex-wrap utilities to create a flexible image container, centering the images horizontally with justify-center. The -mx-2 class removes gaps between images, while w-full ensures each image takes up the full width of its parent. Responsive classes like sm:w-1/2, md:w-1/3, and lg:w-1/4 adjust image widths for different screen sizes. Padding (px-2) creates small gaps between images, and rounded-lg and shadow-md add rounded borders and subtle shadows. Replace placeholder URLs with actual image URLs and customize further with utility or custom classes.

Image Gallery with Captions
We've added captions to each image, positioning them at the bottom using absolute, bottom-0, left-0, and right-0 classes. The captions have a background color and padding with bg-gray-800, bg-opacity-75, text-white, p-2, and rounded-b-lg classes.

Image Gallery with Hover Effects
We've added a hover effect to the images using Tailwind's transform, transition-transform, duration-500, and hover:scale-110 classes, creating a smooth scaling animation on hover. To prevent overflow and apply rounded corners, the parent container of each image uses overflow-hidden and rounded-lg classes.
<div class="container mx-auto py-8">
<h1 class="mb-4 text-3xl font-bold">Image Gallery with Hover Effects</h1>
<div class="-mx-2 flex flex-wrap justify-center">
