Tailwind CSS
Required plugins:
CSS - The plugin is bundled with GoLand and enabled by default.
Tailwind CSS - Install the plugin on the Settings | Plugins page, tab Marketplace.
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.
Make sure you have Node.js on your computer. Also make sure that your Node.js version complies with the Tailwind CSS requirements. For example, Tailwind CSS v2.0 requires Node.js 12.13 or later. Learn more from the Tailwind CSS Upgrade guide.
Configure a Node.js interpreter in your project as described in Configuring a local Node.js interpreter, or in Using Node.js on Windows Subsystem for Linux, or in Configuring remote Node.js interpreters.
Make sure the CSS bundled plugin is enabled in the Installed tab of the Settings | Plugins page as described in Plugins.
Install and enable the Tailwind CSS plugin on the Settings | Plugins page, tab Marketplace, as described in Installing plugins from JetBrains Marketplace.

Learn more from the Tailwind CSS official website.
GoLand autocompletes Tailwind classes in HTML files and in CSS files after the @apply directive.
GoLand suggests Tailwind classes for completion in JavaScript string literals.
Completion suggestions are also shown for pseudo-class variants.
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 (Ctrl0Q) when you complete your code.
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.
You can also customize the default Tailwind configuration options. For example, you may want to tune the HTML attributes list for which to provide class completions or use an experimental regular expression format to specify additional places where completions should be triggered.
Open the Settings dialog (CtrlAlt0S) and go to Languages and Frameworks | Style Sheets | Tailwind CSS.
Update the properties to add configuration options.
