Tailwind Weekly #59: Tailwind UI Ecommerce is out baby 😎!
Hello folks!
We took a break for a few weeks to chill but we’re back as usual now.
In the meantime, we got a brand new Tailwind UI package and a Headless UI update, the Tailwind Labs team sure has been busy!
I also wanted to mention that we recently reached 1500 subscribers 🥳. Thank you all for reading our issues every week, it’s been an absolute pleasure to write to you about a topic I love so much!
Now, let’s get on with the issue 😉.

💅 Showcase

Rails translation management platform, which can help you collaborate on your translations even with your non-tech teammates.
🎁 Resource
tailwind-merge
Oh man, this week’s resource is so cool! It’s kind of a solution to a very annoying problem you’ll probably come across if you use Tailwind with Vue or React.
The main issue is that, depending on how you handle your props on your app, you may end up with duplicated properties, something like this: border rounded px-2 py-1 p-3
which could have unintended side effects.
Tailwind Merge solves this issue for you, and it works as a utility function. . It supports Tailwind v2.0 up to v2.2, and it’s fully typed. Definitely check it out!
