Hugo & Tailwind 3.0

A barebone Hugo & Tailwind CSS 3.0 starter kit

Install to VS Code with:
git clone https://github.com/4044ever/Hugo-Tailwind-3.0
npm install

To start developing:
npm run start

To generate the site HTML:
npm run build

npm run start will run two commands parallel:
npx tailwindcss -i ./assets/css/main.css -o ./assets/css/style.css --watch

and hugo server

Note: When you start first time npm run start a style.css must exist - or you get an error! Just do a Ctrl+c and run npm run start - even though you got an error but a style was written anyway and 2nd time round it should start fine.

To get out of developing mode you need to do Ctrl+c twice.

Disclaimer: This is my first try with Hugo and Tailwind 3.0. To me it looks like all functions work, classes get updated, a correct /public/ folder with purged, minified style*.css gets created. Seems production ready, you can build a theme around it. Leave a comment if you see errors or improvements.

Update Notes: If you have an older version and new Tailwind classes don't update, change in tailwind.config.js to content: ['./layouts/**/*.html', './content/**/*.md']. Allowing HTML in *.md files may help too, allow them in config.toml

Hugo Note: Tested up to/with Hugo 0.95.0 extended.
