Problem & Solution

Making responsive spacings and fontsizes requires lots of brekpoint modifiers. Making change across multiple components become painful pretty quickly as number of code incrases. Use single class name to specify spacing across all screens.

Example usage

<!-- Example of responsive spacing -->
<!-- We are using custom screens option -->
<div class="p-1 tablet:p-2 desktop:p-5"></div>

To keep things consistent there can be only spacing class which changes size according to configuration.

Configure once, use responsive spacing with single class name.

// tailwind.config.js
const tailwindResponsivePlugin = require('tailwindcss-responsive')

module.exports = {
  //...
  theme: {
    screens: {
      tablet: '1024px',
      desktop: '1400px',
    },
    rtext: {
      DEFAULT: {
        'base': '1rem',
        'lg': '2rem',
      },
      tablet: {
        'base': '1.5rem',
        'lg': '5rem',
      },
      desktop: {
        'base': '2rem',
        'lg': '8rem',
      },
    },
    rspacing: {
      DEFAULT: {
        1: '0.459375rem',
        2: '0.91875rem',
        3: '1.8375rem',
        // ...
      },
      tablet: {
        1: '0.65625rem',
        2: '1.3125rem',
        3: '2.625rem',
        // ...
      },
      desktop: {
        1: '0.9375rem',
        2: '1.875rem',
        3: '3.75rem',
        // ...
      },
    },
    plugins: [
      tailwindResponsivePlugin(),
    ],
  }
}

<div class="rp-1 text-base"></div>
<!-- This is equivalent to -->
<div class="p-[0.459375rem] tablet:p-[0.65625rem] desktop:p-[0.9375rem] text-[1rem] laptop:text-[1.5rem] dekstop:text-[2rem]"></div>
