This PR skips creating a compiler in the `@tailwindcss/postcss`
implementation if we know that the CSS file we are handling is
definitely not a Tailwind CSS file.
This is a performance improvement for initial builds where some CSS
files would've been handling by Tailwind CSS but shouldn't. E.g.: When
setting up custom fonts in Next.js applications, each font will have
it's own CSS file that is passed to `@tailwindcss/postcss`.
Since they don't contain `@import` or any other Tailwind CSS directives,
we can just skip them.
Resolves#15315
It looks like we implemented this in Core but forgot to expose it from
the distributed package (the references are only used for testing
plugins internally right now). This exposes `flattenColorPalette` under
the old import path of `tailwindcss/lib/util/flattenColorPalette`.
## Test Plan
Added the following plugin to the Vite example and ensured it works as
expected:
```ts
import flattenColorPalette from 'tailwindcss/lib/util/flattenColorPalette'
import plugin from 'tailwindcss/plugin'
export default plugin(({ matchUtilities, theme }) => {
matchUtilities(
{
'hover-bg': (value) => {
return {
'&:hover': {
backgroundColor: value,
},
}
},
},
{ values: flattenColorPalette(theme('colors')) },
)
})
```

Turns out that the postcss file watcher does not like our Unix based
paths and will print a warning about them. This fixes the issue by
calling `path.resolve()` to convert it back to a Windows-style absolute
path if necessary.
## Test Plan
Tested on Windows with a new Next.js 14 project. Ensured that file
reloads also still work (changes to the `tsx` file are picked up
correctly). Also ensure that the CI runs on Windows.

This PR improves the `@tailwindcss/postcss` integration by using direct
AST transformations between our own AST and PostCSS's AST. This allows
us to skip a step where we convert our AST into a string, then parse it
back into a PostCSS AST.
The only downside is that we still have to print the AST into a string
if we want to optimize the CSS using Lightning CSS. Luckily this only
happens in production (`NODE_ENV=production`).
This also introduces a new private `compileAst` API, that allows us to
accept an AST as the input. This allows us to skip the PostCSS AST ->
string -> parse into our own AST step.
To summarize:
Instead of:
- Input: `PostCSS AST` -> `.toString()` -> `CSS.parse(…)` -> `Tailwind
CSS AST`
- Output: `Tailwind CSS AST` -> `toCSS(ast)` -> `postcss.parse(…)` ->
`PostCSS AST`
We will now do this instead:
- Input: `PostCSS AST` -> `transform(…)` -> `Tailwind CSS AST`
- Output: `Tailwind CSS AST` -> `transform(…)` -> `PostCSS AST`
---
Running this on Catalyst, the time spent in the `@tailwindcss/postcss`
looks like this:
- Before: median time per run: 19.407687 ms
- After: median time per run: 11.8796455 ms
This is tested on Catalyst which roughly generates ~208kb worth of CSS
in dev mode.
While it's not a lot, skipping the stringification and parsing seems to
improve this step by ~40%.
Note: these times exclude scanning the actual candidates and only time
the work needed for parsing/stringifying the CSS from and into ASTs. The
actual numbers are a bit higher because of the Oxide scanner reading
files from disk. But since that part is going to be there no matter
what, it's not fair to include it in this benchmark.

Closes#15219
This PR adds a new feature, `@import "…" reference` that can be used to
load Tailwind CSS configuration files without adding any style rules to
the CSS.
The idea is that you can use this in combination with your Tailwind CSS
root file when you need to have access to your full CSS config outside
of the main stylesheet. A common example is for Vue, Svelte, or CSS
modules:
```css
@import "./tailwind.css" reference;
.link {
@apply underline;
}
```
Importing a file as a reference will convert all `@theme` block to be
`reference`, so no CSS variables will be emitted. Furthermore it will
strip out all custom styles from the stylesheet. Furthermore plugins
registered via `@plugin` or `@config` inside reference-mode files will
not add any content to the CSS file via `addBase()`.
## Test Plan
Added unit test for when we handle the import resolution and when
`postcss-import` does it outside of Tailwind CSS. I also changed the
Svelte and Vue integration tests to use this new syntax to ensure it
works end to end.

Closes#15138
This PR changes the postcss client to run in the `Once` hook instead of
`OnceExit`. This makes sure the postcss order in v4 matches that of v3.
Conceptually this also makes more sense, since we expect tailwindcss to
be run as one of the first plugins in the pipeline (where `OnceExit`
would run it almost at the end).
To make sure it's still possible to use `postcss-import` before and have
it resolve to the right paths, we also needed to change the
`postcss-fix-relative-paths` plugin to run in the `Once` order
(`postcss-import` also uses `Once` order so the order).
## Test Plan
This issue had many ways in which it can manifest. I added a unit test
to ensure the plugin order works but here's a concrete example when
using the postcss plugin in Vite.
### Before
Image `url()`s were not properly handled since the postcss plugin to
transform these was run before Tailwind CSS could generate the class for
it:

Closes#15250
This PR simplifies our Vite integration even more. It turns out that in
some projects (see #15250 for the exact repro), the way we invoke
`svelte-preprocess` was actually causing issues in Vite since with Vite,
it's expected to use the `sveltePreprocess` version exported by
`sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte`.
While trying to change this we noticed that there are different versions
of `sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte` for Vite 5 and Vite 6 which caused us
to investigate even more and we noticed that we do not even need to
recursively call into the `sveltePreprocess()` as every plugin is run
after each other anyways. This allows us to drop the dependency on
`svelte-preprocess` and simplify the code a bit more, registering only a
`(string) => string` style transformer.
## Test Plan
This was tsted on the repro repo from #15250 as well as the SvelteKit
setup from [my
playgrounds](https://github.com/philipp-spiess/tailwindcss-playgrounds).
Furthermore we tested various combinations of `svelte`,
`@sveltejs/vite-plugin-svelte` and `vite` in our integration test to
ensure everything works as expected.

`overflow-clip` was the name for `text-clip` in v4. However, that was

This PR improves the performance of the `@tailwindcss/postcss` and
`@tailwindcss/vite` implementations.
The issue is that in some scenarios, if you have multiple `.css` files,
then all of the CSS files are ran through the Tailwind CSS compiler. The
issue with this is that in a lot of cases, the CSS files aren't even
related to Tailwind CSS at all.
E.g.: in a Next.js project, if you use the `next/font/local` tool, then
every font you used will be in a separate CSS file. This means that we
run Tailwind CSS in all these files as well.
That said, running Tailwind CSS on these files isn't the end of the
world because we still need to handle `@import` in case `@tailwind
utilities` is being used. However, we also run the auto source detection
logic for every CSS file in the system. This part is bad.
To solve this, this PR introduces an internal `features` to collect what
CSS features are used throughout the system (`@import`, `@plugin`,
`@apply`, `@tailwind utilities`, etc…)
The `@tailwindcss/postcss` and `@tailwindcss/vite` plugin can use that
information to decide if they can take some shortcuts or not.
---
Overall, this means that we don't run the slow parts of Tailwind CSS if
we don't need to.

Closes#15159
This PR extends the `@tailwindcss/node` packages to be able to overwrite
the CSS and JS resolvers. This is necessary as some bundlers, in
particular Vite, have a custom module resolution system that can be
individually configured. E.g. in Vite it is possible to add custom
[resolver
configs](https://vite.dev/config/shared-options.html#resolve-conditions)
that is expected to be taken into account.
With the new `customCssResolver` and `customJsResolver` option, we're
able to use the Vite resolvers which take these configs into account.
## Test Plan
Tested in the playground by configuring [resolver
conditions](https://vite.dev/config/shared-options.html#resolve-conditions)
(with Vite 5.4 and Vite 6 beta). An integration test was added for both
the JS and CSS resolvers to ensure it keeps working as expected.

This PR updates many of our `@property` rules to use `syntax: "*"`
instead of a specific type.
Registering custom properties with types triggers all sorts of obscure
edge-case bugs in different browsers (mostly Safari, sometimes Firefox),
but using `"*"` always seems to work. So unless we know we actually need
to animate a custom property, it's safer to register is as `"*"`.
Many of the places our custom properties are used are already inherently
animatable (like the `translate`, `scale`, and `transform`) even when
the underlying properties are not typed, so removing types for things
like `--tw-scale-x` doesn't actually stop the `scale-*` utilities from
being animateable.
I've also updated the `--tw-gradient-from/via/to-position` properties to
use `<length-percentage>` instead of `<length> | <percentage>` because
for some reason I don't understand, only `<length-percentage>` works
correctly when using `calc(…)` in arbitrary values.

Safari has an [insane
bug](https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss/issues/15196) where if
you register custom properties for gradient colors using the `"<color>"`
type, you attempt to transition a gradient on an element, _and_ you set
a font-size and line-height on that element that point to CSS variables
defined using `rem` units, the element size changes and shifts the
layout while the transition is happening:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/46eefccf-8a12-4751-8a44-54e48c54cd06
This bug goes away if you use anything other than `rem` units for the
line-height. So this PR changes all of our variables like
`--text-3xl--line-height` to use unitless relative line-height values
instead of fixed line-height values to workaround this bug. Not my
favorite change but pretty low impact because you likely aren't going to
reference those variables for much anyways.
If Safari ever fixes this bug (which is still present as of Safari 18),
it would be nice to swap these back to what they were.

This PR fixes an issue where `group` and `peer` would not have their
prefixes migrated as part of the upgrade script. We do this by
registering `group` and `peer` as utilities during the codemods. This
way, `parseCandidate` will find these classes to be valid Tailwind
candidates and the prefix can be migrated just like any other utility.
## Test Plan
Tried it with the v3 upgrade playground in the repo and it worked fine:
<img width="1257" alt="Screenshot 2024-11-27 at 12 17 25"

I've also added tests to our prefix upgrade integration test and the
prefix migration unit tests.
After the changes in #15201, our Windows CI started to fail. The problem
is that lightningcss now needs to convert `oklch` colors into the
`oklab` space to inline some `color-mix()` functions.
The problem, though, is that this calculation seems to have rounding
differences between macOS, Linux, and Windows. Since we still want to
_define the default color space in `oklch`_ and _use lightningcss as a
post-processor in our unit tests so we have a better coverage of the
output_, this PR attempts to fix the issue by adding a custom vitest
serializer. It will find usages of the `oklab()` function with arguments
that have lots of decimal places (at least 6 decimal places). What it
then does is simply cut off any excess decimal places to truncate the
output to 5 places. E.g.:
```diff
- oklab(62.7955% .224863 .125846 / .75);
+ oklab(62.7955% .22486 .12584 / .75);
```

There's a strange bug in Safari < 18 where mixing a color with
`transparent` or with a gray tone, the resulting color looks as if it's
been interpolated through a red-ish color.
Here's the same blue to transparent gradient in Safari 17 using OKLAB
and OKLCH for comparison:
<img width="747" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1cb09b00-0d84-4284-be34-103726d8af03">
In other browsers, both of these examples look identical.
This bug also shows up when using an opacity modifier right now because
we use `in oklch` in our `color-mix(…)` calls:
<img width="744" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b029c5f1-0c5c-4119-80ba-dfeabe25927e">
This PR updates all of the affected places in Tailwind to use `in oklab`
instead of `in oklch` which then renders everything as expected in all
browsers.
The big unfortunate change here is changing the default behavior of
gradient utilities like `bg-linear-to-r` to use `in oklab` instead of
`in oklch`. This means you get muddier gradients by default when
creating a gradient between two regular colors (no transparent or gray),
like how they looked in v3:
<img width="740" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d02e7596-4c99-4ba3-b929-d2db4911c8e9">
This feels worth it though to avoid people getting bitten by this Safari
bug without realizing it, and people can always opt in to using OKLCH
with classes like `bg-linear-to-r/oklch`. The nice thing about making
this opt-in is that no one will opt-in to this when using transparent or
gray because it won't make things look any different/better, and the
only places where it does make things look better _do_ work as expected
in Safari anyways.

Given this theme configuration:

…utilities like `max-w-sm` will use `8px` instead of `256px` after this

This PR reverts the changes in #15036 which add consistent base styles
for buttons and form controls to Preflight.
While this felt like a good idea (for the reasons explained in that PR),
practically this is just too disruptive of a change for people upgrading
from v3 to v4.
While updating some of our projects to v4 we found ourselves adding
classes to undo styles more often than we expected, and it also felt
inconsistent to have to use a different set of classes to style a link
or a button when we wanted them to look the same.
We also decided it feels a little strange that you could change the
border color of an element without ever specifying that it should have a
border, for example this just feels a little wrong:
```html
<button class="border-blue-500">
```
We also needed to set a default `color-scheme` value for any of this
stuff to work which breaks the ability to use the `color-scheme` meta
tag.
Since this change was a fairly major breaking change and we aren't
feeling much benefit from it, it doesn't feel worth making this change
for v4.

These utilities are deprecated (and were removed) but we're brining them
back so they keep working:
- `flex-grow-*`
- `flex-shrink-*`
- `decoration-slice`
- `decoration-clone`
- `overflow-ellipsis`
This PR improves compatibility for named `opacity` theme values. One of
the changes in v4 is that we use the CSS `color-mix()` function to apply
opacity to colors. This, however, is limited to percentage values only:
```css
color: color-mix(in oklch, var(--color-red-500) 50%, transparent);
/* ^^^ */
/* This needs to be a percentage value */
```
In v3, however, it was common to specify custom opacity values as
decimal numbers. That's also what we did in our default config:
6069a81187/stubs/config.full.js (L703-L725)
This PR improves interop with these values by:
1. Converting decimal numbers in the range of `[0, 1]` to their
percentage value equivalent when using the interop layer.
2. Adjusts the codemod that migrates `opacity` theme keys to Tailwind v4
theme variables to include the same conversion.
3. Furthermore, due to the added support of named opacity modifers, we
can also drop theme keys that would now be the default. For example the
following config would not be necessary in v4 as the opacity modifier
would accept the value `50` by default:
```js
module.exports = {
theme: {
opacity: {
50: 0.5
}
}
}
```
## Test Plan
Added a new integration test for the codemod and a unit test for the
interop layer. I also re-ran the codemod on the Commit template and it's
now working as expected (left is v3, right is v4):

While testing the latest alpha release across Tailwind v3 projects, we
noticed one regression in relation to the default color of `<button>`
elements. In v3, the reset would change the default to `inherit` but in
v4 we would _not include it in the reset snippet inserted by the upgrade
too_.
This PR changes the upgrade snippet to include it:
```diff
/*

maintain compatibility with v3, the following resets have been added:
*/
@layer base {
input,
textarea,
select,
button {
border: 0px solid;
border-radius: 0;
padding: 0;
+ color: inherit;
background-color: transparent;
}
}
```

snippets.

This PR makes the candidate parser more strict by not allowing empty
arbitrary values.
Examples that are not allowed anymore:
- `bg-[]` — arbitrary value

- `bg-[length:]` — arbitrary value, with typehint
- `bg-(length:)` — arbitrary value, with typehint, var shorthand
- `bg-red-500/[]` — arbitrary modifier
- `bg-red-500/()` — arbitrary modifier, var shorthand
- `data-[]:flex` — arbitrary value for variant
- `data-():flex` — arbitrary value for variant, var shorthand
- `group-visible/[]:flex` — arbitrary modifier for variant
- `group-visible/():flex` — arbitrary modifier for variant, var
shorthand
If you are trying to trick the parser by injecting some spaces like
this:
- `bg-[_]`
Then that is also not allowed.
This PR updates the default `drop-shadow-*` values to use a single
shadow instead of multiple shadows.
This ensures that the usage with `drop-shadow(var(--drop-shadow-xl))` is
correct because the `drop-shadow(…)` needs to encode a single drop
shadow.

This PR introduces consistent base styles for buttons and form controls
in Tailwind CSS v4.
## Motivation
In v3, form elements lack default styles, which can be
confusing—especially when certain elements, like a text input without a
placeholder or value, are rendered completely invisible on the page.
The goal of this change is to provide reasonable default styles for
buttons, inputs, selects, and textareas that are (mostly) consistent
across all browsers while remaining easy to customize with your own
styles.
This improvement should make Tailwind more accessible for developers new
to the framework and more convenient in scenarios where you need to
quickly create demos (e.g., using Tailwind Play).
## Light and dark mode support
These styles support both light and dark mode, achieved using the
`light-dark()` CSS function. While browser support for this function is
still somewhat limited, Lightning CSS transpiles it to a CSS
variable-based approach that works in older browsers.
For this approach to function correctly, a default `color-scheme` must
be set in your CSS (as explained in [the Lightning CSS
documentation](https://lightningcss.dev/transpilation.html#light-dark()-color-function)).
This PR addresses this requirement by setting the `color-scheme` to
`light` on the `html` element in Preflight.

## Breaking changes
While we don’t expect these changes to significantly impact v3 users
upgrading to v4, there may be minor differences for those relying on the
simpler v3 styles.
For example, Preflight now applies a `border-radius` to buttons and form
controls. If you weren’t explicitly setting the border radius to `0` in
your project, you’ll need to do so to restore the previous look.
Thankfully, reverting to the v3 styles is straightforward—just add the
following reset to your CSS:
```css
@layer base {
input,
textarea,
select,
button {
border: 0px solid;
border-radius: 0;
padding: 0;
background-color: transparent;
}
}
```
It’s worth noting that this reset doesn't touch the
`::file-selector-button` styles that were added in this PR. This is
because it's not possible to reliably "undo" these styles and restore
the original user-agent styles (which is what was used in v3), as these
are different in each browser. However, these new styles actually match
the defaults in most browsers pretty closely, so hopefully this just
won't be an issue.
## Codemod
This PR includes a codemod that automatically inserts the above
mentioned v3 reset to help avoid breaking changes during the upgrade.
The codemod will insert the following CSS:
```css
/*
In Tailwind CSS v4, basic styles are applied to form elements by default. To
maintain compatibility with v3, the following resets have been added:
*/
@layer base {
input,
textarea,
select,
button {
border: 0px solid;
border-radius: 0;
padding: 0;
background-color: transparent;
}
}
```
## Testing
These changes have been tested across a wide range of browsers,
including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and Opera on macOS and Windows,
as well as Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and several lesser-known browsers on
iOS and Android.
However, some quirks still exist in certain mobile browsers, such as iOS
Safari, which adds too much bottom padding below date and time inputs:

The only reliable way to address these issues is by applying
`appearance: none` to these form controls. However, this felt too
opinionated for Preflight, so we’ve opted to leave such adjustments to
user-land implementations.

Closes#15050
In Tailwind CSS v4 Alpha 31 we changed how we scan template files. This
changes included a new folder-dependency that is emitted for the `base`
directory, so we can listen for new files being added as part of the
postcss dependency.
In our testing, this worked fine with the Next.js integration meaning a
new file in the project root would be picked up by Oxide and we could
update the CSS files accordingly.
This change is now, however, causing an issue. With Next.js 15 **and
with a custom `distDir` configured**, the postcss build, that will write
into the `distDir`, will cause another postcss run to be triggered,
starting an endless loop (regardless of wether or not the `distDir` was
also part of your gitignore list).
This PR now changes the postcss client to not emit the base directory as
a dependency to revert this changes. This does mean that new files and
folders created _directly in the project root_ will require a restart of
the Next.js server again (just like it did in Alpha 31 and before) for
now.
## Test Plan
Next 15 does not seem to run in our current integration test setup (for
some reason the server does not close correctly and it will fail on the
cleanup step), so this change was tested manually:
- First, clone the [templates
repo](https://github.com/philipp-spiess/tailwindcss-playgrounds) I use
for third party frameworks
- Then, do a full build in the parent repo `tailwindcss` via `pnpm
build`
- Now, install the local tarballs in the `tailwindcss-playgrounds` repo
via `pnpm install`
With this setup I have tested changes to a template file (that causes
new utilities to be added) and the CSS file (that will rebuild properly)
across both `pnpm dev` and `pnpm dev --turbo`. Furthermore integration
tests assert it still works in Next 14 like it did before:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b0ccb3dd-d090-4e4c-97c5-74129a2789be
One thing to make sure of is to include the new `distDir` into the
`.gitignore` file as well, otherwise we will scrape it for changes which
inherently causes an endless loop issue again.
