• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/column-gap

Installation

Install the plugin from npm:

npm install -D @konnng/tailwind-content-column

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

// tailwind.config.js

/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      // ...
    },
  },
  plugins: [
    require('@konnng/tailwind-content-column'),
    // ...
  ],
};

Available theme configuration

{
  colCount: {},
  colFill: {},
  colGap: {},
  colRuleColor: {},
  colRuleStyle: {},
  colRuleWidth: {},
  colSpan: {},
  colWidth: {},
}

Note It is not recommended to change colFill, colRuleStyle and colSpan, since both use their own values from CSS specification.

Example:

// tailwind.config.js

/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      colCount: {
        sm: '425px',
        //...
      },
      colRuleColor: {
        secondary: '#c6c6c6',
        //...
      },
      colRuleWidth: {
        px: '1px',
      },
      colWidth: {
        xs: '120px',
      },
    },
  },
  plugins: [
    require('@konnng/tailwind-content-column'),
    // ...
  ],
};

The above configuration will generate the following classes:

• col-count-sm
• col-rule-secondary
• col-rule-width-px
• col-width-xs
