Bring fluid type to tailwindcss

Package Exports

  • tailwindcss-fluid-type
  • tailwindcss-fluid-type/src/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (tailwindcss-fluid-type) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Tailwincss Fluid Type

A plugin that makes the use of Fluid Type a breeze.

👉🏻 Installation

Install the plugin from npm:

# Using npm
npm install tailwindcss-fluid-type

# Using Yarn
yarn add tailwindcss-fluid-type

Then add the plugin to your tailwind.config.js file and do your settings if you're not happy with the defaults:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    // You can disable the fontSize core plugin if you don't need non fluid font sizes. 
    // If you don't disable it, the fluid-type plugin simply overrule the default font-sizes if the keys are the same.
    // Or you can use both alongside when you set an prefix in the settings
    corePlugins: {
        fontSize: false,
        // ...
    },
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type'),
        // ...
    ],
};

👉🏻 Usage

Nothing changed here to the default tailwindcss configuration:

<article>
    <h1 class="text-xl">Fluid type</h1>
</article>

👉🏻 Configuration

The plugin comes with a default configuration (see below) but it's possible to customize this config for your project. As default, we use rem for better accessibility, but you can also use px.


Important Note:
If you set values you have to set all values that you need for your font-sizes. There is no value merging here.


Default configuration

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            // your fluid type settings
            // works only with unitless numbers
            // This numbers are the defaults settings
            settings: {
                fontSizeMin: 1.125, // 1.125rem === 18px
                fontSizeMax: 1.25, // 1.25rem === 20px
                ratioMin: 1.125, // Multiplicator Min
                ratioMax: 1.2, // Multiplicator Max
                screenMin: 20, // 20rem === 320px
                screenMax: 96, // 96rem === 1536px
                unit: 'rem', // default is rem but it's also possible to use 'px'
                prefix: '', // set a prefix to use it alongside the default font sizes
                extendValues: true, // When you set extendValues to true it will extend the default values. Set it to false to overwrite the values.
            },
            // Creates the text-xx classes
            // This are the default settings and analog to the tailwindcss defaults
            // Each `lineHeight` is set unitless and we think that's the way to go especially in context with fluid type.
            values: {
                'xs': [-2, 1.6],
                'sm': [-1, 1.6],
                'base': [0, 1.6],
                'lg': [1, 1.6],
                'xl': [2, 1.2],
                '2xl': [3, 1.2],
                '3xl': [4, 1.2],
                '4xl': [5, 1.1],
                '5xl': [6, 1.1],
                '6xl': [7, 1.1],
                '7xl': [8, 1],
                '8xl': [9, 1],
                '9xl': [10, 1],
            },
        }),
    ],
    variants: {
        fluidType: ['responsive']
    }
};

Fluid type configuration without lineHeight

It is also possible to set just the fontSize without set the lineHeight

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            values: {
                // ...
                'base': 0,
                // ...
            }
        }),
    ]
};

Fluid type configuration with lineHeight & letterSpacing

And yes, you can also set the letterSpacing & lineHeight as you know from the tailwind documentation. letterSpacing can be all values that you like.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            values: {
                // ...
                'base': [0,
                    {
                        lineHeight: 1.6,
                        letterSpacing: '-0.1rem',
                    }
                ],
                // ...
            }
        }),
    ]
};

👉🏻 Samples

Just set the fontSize property

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            settings: {
                fontSizeMin: 1.125,
                fontSizeMax: 1.25,
                ratioMin: 1.125,
                ratioMax: 1.2,
                screenMin: 20,
                screenMax: 96,
                unit: 'rem',
                prefix: ''
            },
            values: {
                // ...
                'base': 0,
                // ...
            }
        }),
    ]
};
<p class="text-base">The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs</p>
.text-base {
    font-size: clamp(1.125rem, calc(1.125rem + (1.25 - 1.125) * ((100vw - 20rem) / (96 - 20))), 1.25rem);
}

Set the fontSize & lineHeight property

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            settings: {
                fontSizeMin: 1.125,
                fontSizeMax: 1.25,
                ratioMin: 1.125,
                ratioMax: 1.2,
                screenMin: 20,
                screenMax: 96,
                unit: 'rem',
                prefix: ''
            },
            values: {
                // ...
                'base': [0, 1.6],
                // ...
            }
        }),
    ]
};
<p class="text-base">The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs</p>
.text-base {
    font-size: clamp(1.125rem, calc(1.125rem + (1.25 - 1.125) * ((100vw - 20rem) / (96 - 20))), 1.25rem);
    line-height: 1.6;
}

Set the fontSize, lineHeight & letterSpacing property

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            settings: {
                fontSizeMin: 1.125,
                fontSizeMax: 1.25,
                ratioMin: 1.125,
                ratioMax: 1.2,
                screenMin: 20,
                screenMax: 96,
                unit: 'rem',
                prefix: '',
            },
            values: {
                // ...
                'base': [0, {
                    lineHeight: 1.6,
                    letterSpacing: '-0.1rem',
                }],
                // ...
            }
        }),
    ]
};
<p class="text-base">The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs</p>
.text-base {
    font-size: clamp(1.125rem, calc(1.125rem + (1.25 - 1.125) * ((100vw - 20rem) / (96 - 20))), 1.25rem);
    line-height: 1.6;
    letter-spacing: -0.1rem;
}

Set a value as string

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            values: {
                // ...
                '2xs': '11px',
                // ...
            }
        }),
    ]
};
<p class="text-2xs">The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs</p>
.text-2xs {
    font-size: 11px;
}

Set a prefix

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss-fluid-type')({
            settings: {
                // ...
                prefix: 'fluid-',
            },
        }),
    ]
};
<p class="fluid-text-base">The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs</p>
.fluid-text-base {
    font-size: clamp(1.125rem, calc(1.125rem + (1.25 - 1.125) * ((100vw - 20rem) / (96 - 20))), 1.25rem);
    line-height: 1.6;
    letter-spacing: -0.1rem;
}
