+
+Tailwind and many other CSS libraries were not designed with web components in
+mind, and come with some non-obvious difficulties when trying to use them in
+such a codebase.
+
+This is a brief guide on how to use such a library with your Lit components.
+
+## Why tailwind doesn't work out of the box
+
+Out of the box, tailwind basically provides some global CSS classes and injects
+the associated CSS at build time (via postcss).
+
+This conflicts with how web components work, since each web component has its
+own natively scoped stylesheet rather than inheriting any global styles. This
+is why Tailwind will not be much use to us without further setup.
+
+## Overview of solution
+
+To solve the gaps tailwind comes with, we will:
+
+- Inject tailwind styles into regular CSS files
+- Use [import attributes](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-attributes)
+to import those CSS files
+- Use [esbuild](https://github.com/evanw/esbuild) to pull those CSS files
+into the bundle or same output directory
+
+## Initial setup
+
+To begin, we need the following dependencies for our build:
+
+- `esbuild` for bundling our code and carry our CSS files across (via imports)
+- `postcss` for injecting tailwind styles
+- `tailwindcss` for tailwind itself (postcss plugin)
+
+We can install these like so:
+
+```sh
+npm install -D esbuild postcss postcss-cli tailwindcss
+```
+
+In our case, we are going to use `postcss-cli` for processing our CSS files. If
+you use rollup or another bundler already, you may be able to use a postcss
+plugin instead.
+
+## Using CSS imports
+
+When creating components, we want to use
+[import attributes](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-attributes) to
+import our CSS files rather than embedding CSS in our sources.
+
+**However, at the time of writing this article, the new `with` syntax is not
+fully supported**. Temporarily, we still have to use the old `assert` syntax,
+until esbuild implements full support for the new standard.
+
+We can do this like so:
+
+```ts
+import myElementStyles from './my-element.css' assert {type: 'css'}
+
+class MyElement extends LitElement {
+  static styles = myElementStyles;
+
+  render() {
+    return html`
+      <span class="italic">I am italic tailwind text</span>
+    `;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+As you can see, we want our `my-element.css` file to contain tailwind
+mixins, and we want to use the resulting classes in our element's `render`
+method.
+
+The CSS file (`my-element.css`) would look like this:
+
+```css
+@tailwind base;
+@tailwind utilities;
+
+/* other custom CSS here */
+```
+
+We will then use tailwind to replace those mixins with CSS, including only
+the styles our `render` method referenced.
+
+## Configuring tailwind and postcss
+
+Before we run our build, we need to configure tailwind and postcss.
+
+In our `tailwind.config.js`, we can write:
+
+```ts
+/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
+export default {
+  content: [
+    './src/**/*.ts'
+  ],
+  theme: {
+    extend: {},
+  },
+  plugins: [],
+}
+```
+
+Tailwind [configuration](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/configuration) can be
+modified to fit your use case. The important part is for `content` to specify
+where our component sources are so tailwind can detect which classes we have
+used.
+
+In our `postcss.config.js`, we simply want to tell postcss to use tailwind
+as a plugin:
+
+```ts
+export default {
+  plugins: {
+    tailwindcss: {}
+  }
+};
+```
+
+## Build scripts
+
+We're going to do a few steps in our build:
+
+1. Bundle our sources (TypeScript in this case, including our CSS imports)
+2. Apply tailwind styles to the build output in-place
+
+To do this, we can use an npm script:
+
+```json
+{
+  "scripts": {
+    "build:js": "esbuild --format=esm --bundle --loader:.css=copy --outfile=bundle.js src/main.ts",
+    "build:css": "postcss -r \"./*.css\"",
+    "build": "npm run build:js && npm run build:css"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+You can see the magic here in our `build:js` script is esbuild's `--loader`
+option, which we have set to `.css=copy`. This basically means any CSS files we
+import via an ESM import statement will be copied across to the same directory
+as the esbuild JS output (`bundle.js` in our case).
+
+So if we import `my-element.css`, we will expect two files in our directory:
+
+- `my-element.css` (probably under another name, using esbuild's chunk naming)
+- `bundle.js`
+
+Finally, the `build:css` script then _replaces_ (via the `-r` flag) those CSS
+files with copies which now have the tailwind styles injected.
+
+## Run it!
+
+We now have a `build` script! You can run this via `npm run build` and should
+see two new files appear as mentioned before.
+
+## Expressions in styles (dynamic styles)
+
+You may have noticed one thing we have lost by having our CSS in external
+files: we can no longer template variables into our CSS like so:
+
+```ts
+static styles = css`
+  .foo {
+    color: ${dynamicColourDefinedInJs};
+  }
+`;
+```
+
+There are many challenges in supporting this usage and still passing it through
+tailwind. For this reason, **it is not recommended**.
+
+Instead, in places we really need to do this, we should use CSS variables or
+do the computation statically at build-time (replace values in our CSS at
+build time).
+
+To solve this with CSS variables, we can do the following:
+
+`my-element.css`:
+
+```css
+.foo {
+  color: var(--foo-color);
+}
+```
+
+`my-element.ts`:
+
+```ts
+static styles = [
+  css`
+    :host {
+      --foo-color: ${dynamicColour};
+    }
+  `,
+  myElementStyles
+];
+```
+
+The initial `styles` entry in this case is only being used for setting the
+values of some CSS variables, and never used for actual styling. We can then
+reference those variables in our external CSS files.
