Tailwind CSS
GoLand integrates with the Tailwind CSS framework including completion for Tailwind classes in HTML files and completion suggestions for pseudo-class variants, preview of the resulting CSS on hovering over classes in HTML and CSS files or on autocompletion. GoLand recognizes tailwind.config.js files and provides completion based on customization you make to them.

Complete Tailwind classes

Completion suggestions are also shown for pseudo-class variants.
Preview the resulting CSS
When you hover over a Tailwind class in an HTML or CSS file, GoLand shows you the preview of the resulting CSS.
The preview is also shown in the Documentation popup (Ctrl+Q) when you complete your code.
Edit your tailwind.config.js
GoLand provides code completion based on the customization you make through your tailwind.config .js configuration files. For example, if you define a custom theme with new colors, newly generated classes with the name of the custom color will be shown in the completion popup.
