I'm working on a project where I can't use the latest version of TailwindCSS due to node version, so I need to install an older version (v2.2.19). Therefore, I installed the following versions of the packages:
tailwindcss: "^2.2.19" postcss: "^8" autoprefixer: "^9"
I have a postcss.config.js
file:
module.exports = { plugins: { tailwindcss: {}, autoprefixer: {}, }, }
But I encountered the error: "Error: Failed to load PostCSS "tailwindcss" plugin: module 'tailwindcss' not found"
Does anyone know how I can solve this problem? Thanks in advance.
I had a similar problem, I was working on a legacy project in which I was using node version 10. Since
tailwindcss
requires node version12^
, we cannot use this version in the project.The only solution I found was to use the standalone
tailwindcss
CLI. You can take advantage of all the latest features intailwindcss
, but you need to have the CLI file in your project.Here you can find documentation on using the standalone CLI in your projects. And here is the link to download the latest version of the standalone CLI.
I tried it on a Ruby on Rails project and it worked fine for me.
