Quick Start

Installation: To use Tailwind Variants in your project, you can install it as a dependency:

yarn add tailwind-variants
# or
npm i tailwind-variants

Usage:

import { tv } from 'tailwind-variants';
 
const button = tv({
  base: "font-medium bg-blue-500 text-white rounded-full active:opacity-80",
  variants: {
    color: {
      primary: "bg-blue-500 text-white",
      secondary: "bg-purple-500 text-white",
    },
    size: {
      sm: "text-sm",
      md: "text-base",
      lg: "px-4 py-3 text-lg",
    },
  },
  compoundVariants: [
    {
      size: ["sm", "md"],
      class: "px-3 py-1",
    },
  ],
  defaultVariants: {
    size: "md",
    color: "primary",
  }
});
 
return (
  <button className={button({ size: 'sm', color: 'secondary' })}>Click me</button>
)

Responsive variants configuration (optional): If you want to use responsive variants you need to add the Tailwind Variants wrapper to your TailwindCSS config file tailwind.config.js.

// tailwind.config.js
 
const { withTV } = require('tailwind-variants/transformer')

/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
module.exports = withTV({
  content:  ["./index.html", "./src/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}"],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
})

If you're using a custom path to import Tailwind variants, such as creating a custom tv instance with createTV, it's recommended to include this path in the transformer configuration:

// tailwind.config.js

const { withTV } = require('tailwind-variants/transformer')

/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
module.exports = withTV({
  content:  ["./index.html", "./src/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}"],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
}, {
  aliases: ["@/lib/tv"]
})
