This template is using Tailwind CSS V4

Now we are using only a CSS file. It's called global.css and it's located in the src/styles folder. Now we are eimporting Tailwind CSS on the same file instead of using the tailwind.config.cjs file. Like this:

// Importing Tailwind CSS
@import "tailwindcss";
// Importing Tailwind plugins
@plugin "@tailwindcss/typography";
@plugin "@tailwindcss/forms";

Then to add your styles you will use the @theme directive. Like this:

@theme {
  /* Your CSS goes here, see how styles are written on the global.css file */
}

Remember this is just in Alpha version, so you can use it as you want. Just keep an eye on the changes that Tailwind CSS is going to make.

Template Structure

Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:

/
├── public/
├── src/
│   └── pages/
│       └── index.astro
└── package.json

Astro looks for .astro or .md files in the src/pages/ directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.

There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.

Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.

Commands

All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:

Command Action
npm install Installs dependencies
npm run dev Starts local dev server at localhost:3000
npm run build Build your production site to ./dist/
npm run preview Preview your build locally, before deploying
npm run astro ... Run CLI commands like astro add, astro check
npm run astro --help Get help using the Astro CLI
