@tailwindcss/vite plugin API

Enabling or disabling Lightning CSS

By default, this plugin detects whether or not the CSS is being built for production by checking the NODE_ENV environment variable. When building for production Lightning CSS will be enabled otherwise it is disabled.

If you want to always enable or disable Lightning CSS the optimize option may be used:

import tailwindcss from '@tailwindcss/vite'
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    tailwindcss({
      // Disable Lightning CSS optimization
      optimize: false,
    }),
  ],
})

It's also possible to keep Lightning CSS enabled but disable minification:

import tailwindcss from '@tailwindcss/vite'
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    tailwindcss({
      // Enable Lightning CSS but disable minification
      optimize: { minify: false },
    }),
  ],
})
