basecoat-css

Component-layer CSS source for basecoat-rs, the Rust port of basecoat.

This crate ships the same basecoat.css that the upstream project distributes on npm. Use it inside a Tailwind v4 pipeline via @import, or call basecoat_css::write_to(path) from a build.rs to drop the file on disk.

Quick start

// build.rs
fn main() {
    let dest = std::path::Path::new("style/basecoat.css");
    basecoat_css::write_to(dest).unwrap();
    println!("cargo:rerun-if-changed=build.rs");
}

/* style/tailwind.css */
@import "tailwindcss";
@source "../src";
@import "./basecoat.css";

See the main README and INTEGRATION.md for the full integration story.

Substantial portions of basecoat-rs were authored with the help of large language models.
