tailwind.config.js:`js
// tailwind.config.js

`Configuration
$3
Customize the plugin behavior with these options:
`js
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
require('tailwindcss-font-inter')({
importFontFace: true, // Set to false if you want to import Inter from elsewhere
})
]
}
`$3
Define custom sets of OpenType features:
`js
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
theme: {
extend: {
interFontFeatures: {
numeric: ['tnum', 'salt', 'ss02'], // Tabular numbers with stylistic alternates
case: ['case'], // Case-sensitive forms
fractions: ['frac'], // Enable fractions
'stylistic-one': ['ss01'] // Stylistic Set 1
}
}
},
plugins: [require('tailwindcss-font-inter')]
}
`This generates utility classes like:
`css
/ Default features /
.font-feature-default { font-feature-settings: 'calt' 1, 'kern' 1; }
.font-feature-normal { font-feature-settings: normal; }/ Custom features /
.font-feature-numeric { font-feature-settings: 'tnum' 1, 'salt' 1, 'ss02' 1; }
.font-feature-case { font-feature-settings: 'case' 1; }
.font-feature-fractions { font-feature-settings: 'frac' 1; }
.font-feature-stylistic-one { font-feature-settings: 'ss01' 1; }
`Manual Font Import
If you set
importFontFace: false, you'll need to import Inter yourself. You can use Google Fonts:`html
`Or import directly from Inter's CDN:
`css
@import url('https://rsms.me/inter/inter.css');
