  content: ["./src/**/*.{html,js,svelte,ts}", "./node_modules/tw-elements/dist/js/**/*.js"],

  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },

module.exports = config;

And update __layout.svelte to include the following:

<script lang="ts">
  import "../app.css";
  import { browser } from "$app/env";
  import { onMount } from "svelte";
  onMount(async () => {
    if (browser) {
      await import("tw-elements");
    }
  });
</script>
