Styling Svelte with Tailwind CSS

Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework. It comes with predefined classes, such as flex, pt-4, and text-center, which you can use directly in your markup:

<div class="flex pt-4 text-center" />

We are going to use Vite’s Svelte template as a base to set up Tailwind CSS. If you are not familiar with setting up Vite’s Svelte template, here are the quick steps to set it up:

  1. Run the Vite setup tool:
    npm create vite@latest my-project-name -- --template svelte

    This will generate a new folder named my-project-name containing the basic files necessary for a Svelte project.

  2. Step into the my-project-name folder and install the dependencies:
    cd my-project-name
    npm install
