Frequently Asked Questions

How does the live preview work?

The preview renders your HTML inside an iframe that loads the Tailwind CSS CDN. As you type, the iframe updates in real time so you can see exactly how your Tailwind classes look.

Can I test responsive designs?

Yes. Use the responsive toggle buttons (mobile, tablet, desktop) to change the preview width and see how your component adapts to different screen sizes.

Does the dark mode toggle work with Tailwind dark: classes?

Absolutely. Toggling dark mode adds class="dark" to the iframe's html element, so any Tailwind dark: variant classes in your HTML will activate automatically.

Is my code saved between sessions?

Yes. Your HTML is persisted in your browser's local storage, so it will still be there when you return to the tool later.

Can I test Tailwind classes without installing anything?

Yes. The preview renders your utility classes live with no build step, npm install, or config file. Paste HTML, type Tailwind classes, and the result updates instantly, which makes it handy for quickly checking what a class does.

How do I preview a Tailwind component at mobile and desktop sizes?

Use the responsive toggle buttons to switch the preview width between mobile, tablet, and desktop. Combine that with Tailwind responsive prefixes like md: and lg: in your HTML to see exactly how the layout reflows at each breakpoint.
