The latest version of TailWindCSS, version 3.0.7, comes with a [standalone executable](https://tailwindcss.com/blog/standalone-cli#get-started) which doesn’t require node\_modules etc to be setup by developers. Just need to create tailwind.config.js and then run as is : `~/tailwindcss -i styles.src.css -o styles.css` Now, with this, will PineGrow integrate TailWindCSS 3.x in the next release ? ---

I am **very much** looking forward to this update, as I have 100% transitioned to **Tailwind** over the last year, as have most of the devs in my circle. Time to finally shed the **BLOAT**! 🀩 ---

Hi @PwrSrg, In the older version of Pinegrow, if you turn on the Design panel it will also turn on the JIT compiler to discard unused classes without the need for an external build. Cheers, Bob ---

This means that PineGrow s/w has JIT built-in ? ---

Pinegrow had JIT built-in in the last version. Now it has support if you want to use your own build process. That way you can add in other PostCSS packages and expanded content purging.
