About CSS to Tailwind
Migrating a project to Tailwind means translating familiar CSS declarations into utility classes, and remembering whether margin-top: 1rem is mt-4 or something else slows you down. This converter takes a block of plain CSS and suggests the matching Tailwind utilities, so you can move existing styles into a utility-first workflow without constantly checking the docs.
Paste your CSS rules and the tool maps properties and values to their closest Tailwind classes, grouping them so you can apply them to an element. It is free, runs in your browser, and needs no signup, returning suggestions instantly. Because Tailwind uses a fixed spacing and color scale, values that fall between scale steps map to the nearest utility or an arbitrary-value class.

FAQ
What about values not on Tailwind's scale?
Off-scale values map to the nearest utility or to an arbitrary-value class using square-bracket syntax so the exact value is kept.
Does it handle media queries and pseudo-classes?
Plain declarations map most directly. Responsive and state variants may need you to add prefixes like md: or hover: yourself.
Will every property convert?
Most common properties map to utilities, but some niche or complex CSS has no direct Tailwind class and may need custom CSS.
Does this depend on my Tailwind config?
It assumes the default scale. If you have customized spacing or colors, double-check the suggested classes against your config.
Can I use CSS to Tailwind on mobile?
Yes — ToolHub is fully responsive and works on iPhone, Android, tablets and all modern browsers. No app install needed.
