Quick Start

1. Create a new React Native application

npx create-react-native-app my-nativewind-app

Choose "Default new app" and then move into the project's directory.

cd my-nativewind-app

2. Install the dependencies

You will need to install nativewind and it's peer dependency tailwindcss.

yarn add nativewind
yarn add --dev tailwindcss

3. Setup Tailwind CSS

Run npx tailwindcss init to create a tailwind.config.ts file

Add the paths to all of your component files in your tailwind.config.js file.

// tailwind.config.js

module.exports = {
- content: [],
+ content: ["./App.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}", "./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}"],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
}

4. Add the Babel plugin

Modify your babel.config.js

// babel.config.js
module.exports = {
- plugins: [],
+ plugins: ["tailwindcss-react-native/babel"],
};
