Tailwind CSS v4 Patterns
Overview
Tailwind CSS v4 introduces a fundamentally new architecture with CSS-first configuration, a new high-performance engine (Oxide), and native support for modern CSS features. This skill covers v4-specific patterns and migration from v3.
When to Use
- Building or styling any frontend with Tailwind CSS
- Migrating from Tailwind v3 to v4
- Setting up design tokens with CSS custom properties
- Using container queries,
@starting-style, or cascade layers
Key Changes in v4
CSS-First Configuration
/* app.css — No more tailwind.config.js */
@import "tailwindcss";
@theme {
--color-primary: oklch(0.6 0.2 260);
--color-secondary: oklch(0.7 0.15 180);
--font-display: "Inter", sans-serif;
--breakpoint-3xl: 1920px;
}
Design Tokens via @theme
@theme {
/* Spacing scale */
--spacing-xs: 0.25rem;
--spacing-sm: 0.5rem;
--spacing-md: 1rem;
--spacing-lg: 1.5rem;
--spacing-xl: 2rem;
/* Colors using OKLCH for perceptual uniformity */
--color-brand-50: oklch(0.97 0.01 260);
--color-brand-500: oklch(0.6 0.2 260);
--color-brand-900: oklch(0.25 0.1 260);
/* Typography */
--font-sans: "Inter", system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-mono: "JetBrains Mono", monospace;
--text-base: 1rem;
--leading-normal: 1.5;
}
Container Queries (Native)
<div class="@container">
<div class="flex flex-col @md:flex-row @lg:grid @lg:grid-cols-3">
<!-- Responsive to container, not viewport -->
</div>
</div>
Composable Variants
<div class="group-hover:not-disabled:opacity-100">
<!-- Chainable variant composition -->
</div>
Guidelines
- Always use
@themefor design tokens — never hardcode colors or spacing - Use OKLCH color space for perceptually uniform color palettes
- Prefer
@containerover media queries for component-level responsiveness - Use CSS-first config — avoid JavaScript config files in v4
- Leverage cascade layers for third-party style integration
- Use
@sourcedirective to explicitly include content paths
Anti-Patterns
- ❌ Using
tailwind.config.jsin v4 (use@themein CSS instead) - ❌ Hardcoding hex/rgb colors (use OKLCH for consistency)
- ❌ Over-nesting
@applyrules (defeats utility-first purpose) - ❌ Using viewport-based breakpoints when container queries are more appropriate
- ❌ Ignoring the new
@variantdirective for custom variants
Migration from v3
# Automatic migration
npx @tailwindcss/upgrade
Key changes to watch:
