What I learned

/* main.css */
.icon:hover {
  filter: invert(53%) sepia(68%) saturate(434%) hue-rotate(121deg) brightness(
      101%
    ) contrast(94%);
}

Extends Tailwind color palette with custom HSL colors.

// tailwind.config.js
extend: {
    colors: {
        "strong-cyan": 'hsl(171, 66%, 44%)',
        "light-blue": 'hsl(233, 100%, 69%)',
        "grayish-blue": 'hsl(201, 11%, 66%)',
        "dark-grayish-blue": 'hsl(210, 10%, 33%)',
    },
    ...

to be used as inline utility class

<p class="mx-auto max-w-md text-center text-grayish-blue"></p>

<li><a href="#" class="hover:text-strong-cyan">FAQs</a></li>
