A plugin for Tailwind CSS v3.2+ that provides utilities for container queries.

This is fork of original repo LINK

I modificated prefix '@' to 'qc-' so now it works better with Razor syntax and many other things.

Install the plugin from npm:

npm install -D @krzysztof318/tw-container-queries

Then add the plugin to your tailwind.config.js file:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    // ...
  },
  plugins: [
    require('@krzysztof318/tw-container-queries'),
    // ...
  ],
}

Start by marking an element as a container queryable using the qc-queryable class, and then applying styles based on the size of that container using the container variants like qc-md:, qc-lg:, and qc-xl::

<div class="qc-queryable">
  <div class="qc-lg:underline">
    <!-- This text will be underlined when the container is larger than or equals `1024px` -->
  </div>
</div>

Default container-type is inline-size.

By default we provide queryable sizes from qc-sm (640px) to qc-2xl (1536px).

You can mark an element with qc-max-{breakpoint} class, for example qc-max-md (width < 768px), qc-max-lg (width < 1024px>).

<div class="qc-queryable">
  <div class="qc-max-lg:underline">
    <!-- This text will be underlined when the container is smaller than `1024px` -->
  </div>
</div>

You can mark an element with qc-{breakpoint}:qc-max-{breakpoint} class, for example qc-sm:qc-max-lg (min-width: 640px and width < 1024px).

<div class="qc-queryable">
  <div class="qc-sm:qc-max-lg:underline">
    <!-- This text will be underlined when the container is larger than or equals `640px and smaller than `1024px` -->
  </div>
</div>

You can optionally name containers using a qc-queryable/{name} class, and then include that name in the container variants using classes like qc-lg/{name}:underline:

<div class="qc-queryable/main">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="qc-lg/main:underline">
    <!-- This text will be underlined when the "main" container is larger than `1024px` -->
  </div>
</div>

In addition to using one of the container sizes provided by default, you can also create one-off sizes using any arbitrary value:

<div class="qc-queryable">
  <div class="qc-[17.5rem]:underline"></div>
    <!-- This text will be underlined when the container is larger than `17.5rem` -->
  </div>
</div>

To stop an element from acting as a container, use the qc-queryable-normal class.

You can create container with arbitary value:

<div class="qc-queryable-[size]">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

This will be compiled to:

.qc-queryable-\[size\] {
  container-type: size;
}

I provided also qc-container similar to tailwind container component:

<div class="qc-queryable">
  <div class="qc-container"></div>
    <!-- Fixed size -->
  </div>
</div>

By default I provide container sizes.

Containers are not default centered but you can enable this in configuration.

If you have configured Tailwind to use a prefix, make sure to prefix both the qc-queryable class and any classes where you are using a container query modifier:

<div class="tw-qc-queryable">
  <!-- ... -->
  <div class="qc-lg:tw-underline">
    <!-- ... -->
  </div>
</div>

By default we ship with the following configured breakpoints:

Default containers:

You can add breakpoints which are available for this plugin under the containers key in your tailwind.config.js file:

It will be applied to qc-{breakpoint} and qc-max-{breakpoint}.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      'qc-queryables': {
        '2xs': '16rem',
      },
    },
  },
}

Or override all breakpoints with yours:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    'qc-queryables': {
      'xs': '16rem',
      'md': '32rem',
      'lg': '48rem',
    },
  },
}

You can also configure containers fixed sizes and their breakpoints:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    'qc-containers': {
      '240px',
      '320px',
      '480px',
    },
  },
}

You can enable auto centering for qc-containers:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    container: {
      center: true,
    },
  },
}
