Headless UI Integration

Introduction to Headless UI

Headless UI provides completely unstyled, fully accessible UI components designed to work seamlessly with Tailwind CSS.

Core Components:

  • Dialog (Modal)
  • Listbox (Select)
  • Menu (Dropdown)
  • Popover
  • Switch
  • Tabs
// components/ui/Modal.jsx
import React, { Fragment, useState } from 'react'
import { Dialog, Transition } from '@headlessui/react'
import { XMarkIcon } from '@heroicons/react/24/outline'

export default function Modal({
  isOpen,
  onClose,
  title,
  children,
  maxWidth = 'max-w-md'
}) {
  return (
    <Transition appear show={isOpen} as={Fragment}>
      <Dialog as="div" className="relative z-50" onClose={onClose}>

        >
          <div className="fixed inset-0 bg-black bg-opacity-25" />

Troubleshooting and Common Issues

Common Problem Resolution

1. Styles Not Working

// ❌ Common error: Incorrect content configuration
module.exports = {
  content: ["./src/*.html"], // Only scans HTML files in src root
  // ...
}

// ✅ Correct configuration: Include all relevant files
module.exports = {
  content: [
    "./src/**/*.{html,js,ts,jsx,tsx,vue}",
    "./components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,vue}",
    "./pages/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,vue}",
    "./app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,vue}",
  ],
  // ...
}

2. Dynamic Class Names Being Purged

// ❌ Wrong: Dynamic class name concatenation
const buttonColor = (color) => `bg-${color}-500` // PurgeCSS cannot detect

// ✅ Solution 1: Use complete class name mapping
const buttonColorMap = {
  red: 'bg-red-500 hover:bg-red-600',
  blue: 'bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-600',
  green: 'bg-green-500 hover:bg-green-600'
}

// ✅ Solution 2: Add to safelist
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  content: [...],
  safelist: [
    'bg-red-500', 'bg-blue-500', 'bg-green-500',
    'hover:bg-red-600', 'hover:bg-blue-600', 'hover:bg-green-600'
  ]
}

3. Styles Lost After Build

// Check PostCSS configuration
// postcss.config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: {
    tailwindcss: {},
    autoprefixer: {},
  },
}

// Ensure Tailwind is imported in the correct location
// main.css
@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

4. Development and Production Environment Inconsistency

// Unified environment configuration
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  content: [
    "./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}",
  ],
  // Ensure same configuration in all environments
  mode: 'jit',
  purge: {
    // Also enable purge in development (automatically handled in JIT mode)
    enabled: true,
    content: [
      "./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}",
    ]
  }
}

Debugging Tools and Techniques

/* Development environment debug styles */
@layer utilities {
  /* Display breakpoint information */
  .debug-screens::before {
    @apply fixed top-0 left-0 z-50 bg-black text-white p-2 text-xs font-mono;
    content: 'xs';
  }

  @screen sm {
    .debug-screens::before {
      content: 'sm';
    }
  }

  @screen md {
    .debug-screens::before {
      content: 'md';
    }
  }

  @screen lg {
    .debug-screens::before {
      content: 'lg';
    }
  }

  @screen xl {
    .debug-screens::before {
      content: 'xl';
    }
  }

  @screen 2xl {
    .debug-screens::before {
      content: '2xl';
    }
  }

  /* Grid debugging */
  .debug-grid {
    @apply relative;
    background-image:
      linear-gradient(rgba(255,0,0,0.1) 1px, transparent 1px),
      linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255,0,0,0.1) 1px, transparent 1px);
    background-size: 20px 20px;
  }

  /* Border debugging */
  .debug-borders * {
    @apply border border-red-200;
  }
}
<!-- Development environment debugging -->
<body class="debug-screens">
  <div class="debug-grid min-h-screen p-4">
    <div class="debug-borders max-w-4xl mx-auto">

Performance Monitoring

// Build analysis script

      const sizeKB = (stats.size / 1024).toFixed(2)

      console.log(`📦 ${file}: ${sizeKB}KB`)
    })
  }
}

// Check unused class names
function checkUnusedClasses() {
