To add CSS variables for colors in your Tailwind CSS setup, you can define them in the `:root` selector within your CSS file. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:
@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;
/* Add custom CSS variables */
:root {
--color-primary: #3490dc; /* Blue */
--color-secondary: #ffed4a; /* Yellow */
--color-accent: #e3342f; /* Red */
--color-neutral: #f8f9fa; /* Light Gray */
}
/* Example usage of variables in custom classes */
.my-custom-class {
color: var(--color-primary);
background-color: var(--color-secondary);
}
/* Optionally extend Tailwind with variables */
@layer utilities {
.bg-primary {
background-color: var(--color-primary);
}
.text-secondary {
color: var(--color-secondary);
}
}### Explanation:
1. **Define Variables**:
The `:root` selector defines global CSS variables for the color palette.
2. **Custom Classes**:
You can create custom utility classes (like `bg-primary` or `text-secondary`) that utilize these variables.
3. **Extend Tailwind**:
The `@layer utilities` directive allows you to define new utility classes in Tailwind for reusability.
You can also integrate these variables directly into your Tailwind configuration file for deeper customization. Let me know if you’d like details on that!
