Línea de trabajo

Start with the Tailwind configuration in config/config.ex and the aliases block shown in the issue, then verify the Node-based commands with npx tailwindcss on FreeBSD. Document the Phoenix-specific setup, including the existing tailwind.config.js and input/output paths, so a fresh project can complete setup and assets.build successfully without the Tailwind Mix installer.

Descripción

I apologize upfront for stupid question. I come from systems & backend engineering world, the world of frontend is new and frightening to me. I am trying to get started with Phoenix on FreeBSD.

I am aware of #49 , however this option has big drawback: there are are no official tailwind cli packages for FreeBSD and current package is outdated, maintained by a single person and relies on a complicated series of dirty hacks to get it working. (All thanks to convoluted build process of the tailwindcss CLI)

As I gather from the readme it is possible to use tailwindcss with nodejs:

For third-party Tailwind plugin support (e.g. DaisyUI), the node package must be used. See the Tailwind Node.js installation instructions if you require third-party plugin support.

However official tailwind documentation gives very generic guidance how to install it. Following those steps verbatim does not produce working result.

Can you please provide more detailed and tailored to phoenix steps?

I do have node and tailwind installed. npx tailwindcss works. As I understand tailwind mix dependency should not be needed, or at least should be reconfigured. I want to re-use auto-generated tailwind.config.js.

This snippet from config/config.ex hints on what input/output paths should be but I would appreciate official step-by-step getting started instruction for a web monkey like me.

# Configure tailwind (the version is required)
config :tailwind,
  version: "3.2.7",
  default: [
    args: ~w(
      --config=tailwind.config.js
      --input=css/app.css
      --output=../priv/static/assets/app.css
    ),
    cd: Path.expand("../assets", __DIR__)
  ]

P.S. It seems that this bit has to be adjusted to run npx tailwind instead...

  defp aliases do
    [
      setup: ["deps.get", "assets.setup", "assets.build"],
      "assets.setup": ["tailwind.install --if-missing", "esbuild.install --if-missing"],
      "assets.build": ["tailwind default", "esbuild default"],
      "assets.deploy": ["tailwind default --minify", "esbuild default --minify", "phx.digest"]
    ]
