š§ Fine-tuning the styles for the official Tailwind typography plugin...
Just add "prose" and ⨠your unstyled text turns into beautiful Schoger-approved perfection š
Multiple sizes out-of-the-box, supports responsive modifiers, and easy to customize too š pic.twitter.com/bhr6fj4sPaā Adam Wathan (@adamwathan) July 9, 2020
This week Adam teased us with the official typography plugin we ALL have been waiting for š!
Why is it so cool and important? Because right now, we have to write our own style guide for each and every project. Some of us just had default styles on a starter theme and changed it depending on the project but this always lived as custom CSS, which is not very tailwind-friendly.
Now, same as we do with forms, youāll be able to define what your markdown/richtext content should look like overall. This is huge!

GitHub LabelSync - The best way to sync labels
Today we bring you a SaaS using Tailwind UI for their marketing site but with a twist, you can clearly see the structure of the sections is straight up from Tailwind UI but they added their own personal touches here and there.
From the typing animation to the emojis and icons (that YAML icon looks awesome!) to the lovely green hue, the site has a good balance of defaults and unique personality.
For those curious on what LabelSync does, hereās their official description:
Meet LabelSync. Itās a GitHub application that helps you sync labels across repositories in your GitHub account. Its main features are centralised reposistory configuration, label chaining, and versatile label renaming. It also posts an overview of every configuration change.

tailwindcss-filters
Yep, another awesome plugin from benface, seriously, the guy is a machine, check out his repoās list.
This particular one is awesome for integrating CSS filters, think grayscale, blur, sepia, etc into your tailwind config, great for when youāre working with a image heavy project.
