+# Turborepo Tailwind CSS starter
+
+This is an official starter Turborepo.
+
+## Using this example
+
+Run the following command:
+
+```sh
+npx create-turbo@latest -e with-tailwind
+```
+
+## What's inside?
+
+This Turborepo includes the following packages/apps:
+
+### Apps and Packages
+
+- `docs`: a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) app with [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/)
+- `web`: another [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) app with [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/)
+- `ui`: a stub React component library with [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) shared by both `web` and `docs` applications
+- `eslint-config-custom`: `eslint` configurations (includes `eslint-config-next` and `eslint-config-prettier`)
+- `tsconfig`: `tsconfig.json`s used throughout the monorepo
+
+Each package/app is 100% [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/).
+
+### Building packages/ui
+
+This example is setup to build `packages/ui` and output the transpiled source and compiled styles to `dist/`. This was chosen to make sharing one `tailwind.config.js` as easy as possible, and to ensure only the CSS that is used by the current application and its dependencies is generated.
+
+Another option is to consume `packages/ui` directly from source without building. If using this option, you will need to update your `tailwind.config.js` to be aware of your package locations, so it can find all usages of the `tailwindcss` class names.
+
+For example, in [tailwind.config.js](packages/tailwind-config/tailwind.config.js):
+
+```js
+ content: [
+ // app content
+ `src/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}`,
+ // include packages if not transpiling
+ "../../packages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
+ ],
+```
+
+### Utilities
+
+This Turborepo has some additional tools already setup for you:
+
+- [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) for styles
+- [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) for static type checking
+- [ESLint](https://eslint.org/) for code linting
+- [Prettier](https://prettier.io) for code formatting
