The use-tailwind-preset NPM package by Christopher Pitt is a tiny helper that installs the Tailwind Laravel preset.
Tired of jumping through hoops to use a @tailwindcss preset in @laravelphp? Try "npx use-tailwind-preset"…

When using a Laravel preset, typically, you’d install the composer package, run the preset command, and then remove the package after that. This NPM package will do all that automatically:
- installs laravel-frontend-presets/tailwindcss
- runs php artisan preset tailwindcss
- installs and builds front-end dependencies
- removes laravel-frontend-presets/tailwindcss
It uses the laravel-frontend-presets/tailwindcss package maintained by our own Michael Dyrynda.
To get started, all you need to do is install this extension. I prefer to install it globally so that it’s always at my fingertips when I need it:
$ laravel new project$ cd project$ git init && git add --all$ git commit -m"First commit" $ npx use-tailwind-preset Installing the Tailwind preset...Installing NPM dependencies...Done.Now Tailwind CSS is ready to go in your project!
