Tailwind Weekly 178: Tailwind UI on V4, New Docs Design Sneak Peek and More πŸš€

Hello folks!

We're officially in the holiday season, and the Tailwind Labs team keeps on giving! We got version updates for Tailwind UI and more info about the new docs design that Steve has been cooking 🀩.

Let's dive in!

🌟 News

Now, all code snippets on Tailwind UI have an option to copy v4-compatible markup. Pretty neat!

I'm also assuming they'll be rolling out updates to the templates and Catalyst once v4 is stable, so stay tuned!

Steve gave us another sneak peek at the upcoming docs redesign, which looks very elegant and clean.
