Note
tailwindcss-react-native is current working on v2, which includes a renaming of the project to NativeWind!
NativeWind is still under development
NativeWind uses Tailwind CSS as high-level scripting language to create a universal design system. Styled components can be shared between all React Native platforms, using the best style engine for that platform (e.g. CSS StyleSheet or StyleSheet.create). It's goals are to to provide a consistent styling experience across all platforms, improving Developer UX, component performance and code maintainability.
NativeWind processes your styles during your application build, and uses a minimal runtime to selectively apply reactive styles (eg changes to device orientation, light dark mode).
