Overview

Tailwind CSS has gained popularity for its utility-first approach to web design, but its capabilities can be expanded when it comes to theming. This demo showcases a method for configuring Tailwind CSS to support multiple themes by utilizing CSS Custom Properties. This not only improves the flexibility of your design but also allows for a more aesthetic and functional way of managing styles across different themes.

By defining styles in a configuration file and organizing classes with a semantic naming convention, developers can streamline the creation of responsive and visually coherent interfaces. The focus on using custom properties also allows themes to be easily interchangeable, making it a valuable addition to any web project.
