yarn build
# preview
yarn preview

import { webpackPlugin as utwm } from 'unplugin-tailwindcss-mangle'
// or cjs
const utwm = require('unplugin-tailwindcss-mangle/webpack')
// use this webpack plugin
// for example next.config.js
const { defineConfig } = require('@vue/cli-service')
// vue.config.js
module.exports = defineConfig({
  transpileDependencies: true,
  configureWebpack: (config) => {
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
      config.plugins.push(utwm())
    }

Notice

By default, only the build will take effect. Due to some restrictions, it cannot take effect in the development mode.

This plugin only transform those classes which name contain - or :, like w-32, before:h-[300px],after:dark:via-[#0141ff]/40. some classes like flex,relative will not be mangled.

because plugin will traverse all html class attr and js StringLiteral to find utilities generated by tailwindcss.

it's dangerous to mangle some js StringLiteral like:

const innerHTML = "i'm flex and relative and grid"
document.body.innerHTML = innerHTML

so only strings with - or : will be transformed.
