config from tailwinds.config not applied in the app !!

[peter-emad99]

I'm using this module embeded with nuxt-ui ...for some reason that i don't know when i put custom tailwind config ..in tailwind.config.ts
it doesn't apply in any component...but when i put the same config in the config option of the module option in nuxt.config ..it works

i want to use the tailwind.config ..so the tailwind interllisense extension ..read the custom config
any thought what i'm doing wrong ??

Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you provide a replication/video to elaborate what you're talking about?

For editor support, we have - https://tailwindcss.nuxtjs.org/tailwind/editor-support.

Please provide a minimal reproduction of your issue over Stackblitz - https://stackblitz.com/github/nuxt/starter/tree/v3-stackblitz - and we can investigate it properly.

Hi there, I have the same issue for a while now.

Reproduction

1. Open the StackBlitz: https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-mrbfhk
2. Install deps and run the devserver
3. Change a value in the tailwind.config.ts file
   -> for example the custom theme color theme.extend.colors.accent.DEFAULT from green to red
4. As soon as you save the file, the devserver automatically restarts, attempting to apply the changes. It does start without any errors, but (in this example) the color value in the generated css file is not being updated, still displayed as green.
5. To apply those changes, you must quit the devserver and restart it manually.

Thanks for the repro @madebyfabian.

It clears up that this isn't related to nuxt/ui. Do you think #682 is possibly related to this?

@ineshbose Ah, just finding this issue. Yeah, I think this describes the same. And yeah, happens on nuxt/tailwind, not nuxt/ui. I think this issue can then be closed as a duplicate of #682
