A Tailwind CSS plugin automatically converts all REM units to PX units in your Tailwind styles. It's particularly useful for projects that require pixel-based measurements.
To install the plugin, run the following command in your project directory:
``bash`
npm install tailwindcss-rem-to-px # or pnpm add tailwindcss-rem-to-px
The plugin works by intercepting all Tailwind utility classes and custom styles that use REM units, converting them to their pixel equivalent based on a configurable base font size (default is 16px). This conversion happens at build time, ensuring that your final CSS output contains only pixel values.
1. Import the plugin in your Tailwind configuration file (tailwind.config.js or tailwind.config.ts):
`typescript`
import remToPx from 'tailwindcss-rem-to-px';
2. Add the plugin to your Tailwind configuration:
`typescript
import type { Config } from 'tailwindcss'
import remToPx from 'tailwindcss-rem-to-px';
export default {
content: [
// ...
],
theme: {
// ...
},
plugins: [
remToPx(),
],
} satisfies Config
`
3. (Optional) Configure the base font size:
If you want to use a base font size other than the default 16px, you can pass it as an option to the plugin:
`typescript`
plugins: [
remToPx({ baseFontSize: 14 }),
],
This will use 14px as the base for REM to PX conversions.
With this plugin, Tailwind classes like:
` Hello, World!html`
Which would normally compile to:
`css
.text-2xl {
font-size: 1.5rem;
}
.p-4 {
padding: 1rem;
}
.m-2 {
margin: 0.5rem;
}
`
Will instead compile to:
`css
.text-2xl {
font-size: 24px;
}
.p-4 {
padding: 16px;
}
.m-2 {
margin: 8px;
}
``
This ensures that all your styles are consistent and precise, using pixel values throughout your project.
