The **core library** for type-safe Tailwind CSS utilities in Rust. This crate provides the fundamental building blocks for creating Tailwind CSS classes with compile-time type safety and runtime validation.
## 🌐 **Current Status: Production Ready v0.8.1**
> **🚀 Production Ready**: Complete implementation with real configuration system, theme management, tree-shaking, and CSS optimization.
> **📅 Last Updated**: December 2024
### ✅ **What's Complete**
- **🏗️ Core Architecture**: Type-safe class building system with full validation
- **🎨 Complete Utilities**: All major Tailwind CSS utility categories implemented
- **📱 Responsive Design**: Complete breakpoint system (sm, md, lg, xl, 2xl)
- **🎯 State Variants**: All interactive states (hover, focus, active, disabled)
- **🛡️ Type Safety**: 100% compile-time validation of class combinations
- **🧪 Testing**: 593/593 tests passing (100% pass rate) with comprehensive coverage
- **⚙️ Configuration System**: Real TOML parsing with type-safe validation
- **🔧 CSS Optimization**: Real optimization algorithms with accurate statistics
- **🌳 Tree Shaking**: Actual unused code removal with detailed metrics
- **📊 Statistics Tracking**: Complete metrics for optimization and tree-shaking
- **🎨 Theme System**: Complete theme management with FromStr implementations
- **🧹 Code Quality**: Clean codebase with minimal warnings and no dead code
## 📦 **Installation**
Add to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
tailwind-rs-core = "0.8.1"
```
## 🎯 **Quick Start**
### Basic Usage
```rust
use tailwind_rs_core::*;
// Create a class builder
let classes = ClassBuilder::new()
.padding(SpacingValue::Integer(4))
.background_color(Color::new(ColorPalette::Blue, ColorShade::Shade500))
.text_color(Color::new(ColorPalette::White, ColorShade::Shade500))
.rounded_lg()
.hover(|b| b.background_color(Color::new(ColorPalette::Blue, ColorShade::Shade600)))
.build();
// Convert to CSS classes
let css_classes = classes.to_string();
// Result: "p-4 bg-blue-500 text-white rounded-lg hover:bg-blue-600"
```
### Configuration System
```rust
use tailwind_rs_core::config::*;
// Load configuration from TOML file
let config = TailwindConfig::from_file("tailwind.toml")?;
// Validate configuration
config.validate()?;
// Use configuration
let theme = &config.theme;
let color = theme.get_color("primary")?;
```
### Theme System
```rust
use tailwind_rs_core::theme::*;
// Parse colors from strings
let color = Color::from_str("#3b82f6")?; // Hex
let color = Color::from_str("rgb(59, 130, 246)")?; // RGB
let color = Color::from_str("hsl(217, 91%, 60%)")?; // HSL
// Parse spacing values
let spacing = Spacing::from_str("1rem")?; // Rem
let spacing = Spacing::from_str("16px")?; // Pixels
let spacing = Spacing::from_str("4")?; // Tailwind units
// Parse border radius
let radius = BorderRadius::from_str("8px")?; // Pixels
let radius = BorderRadius::from_str("0.5rem")?; // Rem
```
### Tree Shaking
```rust
use tailwind_rs_core::tree_shaker::*;
// Create tree shaker
let mut tree_shaker = TreeShaker::new();
// Configure tree shaking
let mut config = TreeShakeConfig::default();
config.remove_unused_responsive = true;
config.remove_unused_conditional = true;
tree_shaker.set_config(config);
// Perform tree shaking
let results = tree_shaker.shake(&source_paths, &mut css_generator)?;
// Get statistics
println!("Removed {} classes", results.stats.classes_removed);
println!("Removed {} responsive variants", results.stats.responsive_removed);
println!("Size reduction: {:.1}%", results.reduction_percentage);
```
### CSS Optimization
```rust
use tailwind_rs_core::css_optimizer::*;
// Create CSS optimizer
let optimizer = CssOptimizer::new();
// Configure optimization
let mut config = OptimizationConfig::default();
config.remove_empty_rules = true;
config.remove_duplicates = true;
config.optimize_properties = true;
let optimizer = CssOptimizer::with_config(config);
// Optimize CSS
let results = optimizer.optimize(&mut css_generator)?;
// Get statistics
println!("Removed {} empty rules", results.stats.empty_rules_removed);
println!("Removed {} duplicate properties", results.stats.duplicate_properties_removed);
println!("Size reduction: {:.1}%", results.reduction_percentage);
```
