Tailwind Safelist Generator

Overview

If you're diving into Tailwind CSS and using dynamic data from a CMS, the tailwind-safelist-generator could be a game changer for your workflow. This clever plugin helps you generate a safelist.txt file that maintains the CSS classes you need, ensuring they remain intact even if they aren't explicitly referenced in your code. Tailwind's Just-In-Time (JIT) mode is fantastic, but when it comes to dynamic class generation, a little help goes a long way.

The process of keeping your safelist updated can be tedious, especially with the frequent theme changes. With this tool, the burdensome task of manually syncing your safelist with your theme is simplified, allowing you to focus on what you do best—creating outstanding designs.
