Need to add config.assets.debug = true to development.rb file

[DogAndCode]

Hi, I have to add config.assets.debug = true to development.rb file because if not all the changes made on application.tailwind.css file dont work, like for example:

@layer base { a { @apply text-red-500 underline }

@DogAndCode Can you explain a bit more about what you're experiencing, so that I can try to reproduce it? The tailwind asset pipeline works fine for me in development regardless of this setting, so I need to understand what's different about your setup. (I'm using a vanilla Rails app after running bin/rails tailwindcss:install.)

Hi @flavorjones, sure, I'm using on my app:

• Ruby 3.2.1
• Rails 7.0.4.2
• Tailwindcss-rails

I was having a problem. If I use the inline css on my *html.erb files it works correctly, but if I try to, instead of inline css, add base styles on @layer base It doesn't work (no changes were made, it was using the inherit style from /builds/tailwind.css ) unless I add config.assets.debug = true to development.rb.

This works:

<h1 class="font-bold text-4xl text-blue-500">Hello!</h1>

This doesn't (unless I set config.assets = true)

@layer base { h1 { @apply font-bold text-4xl text-blue-500; } }

I have the same issue. if I don't set this flag, styles that I'm specifying aren't appearing in the built tailwind.css file in development.

Can also confirm that this was the case on my M1 Pro MBP.

FWIW, I have the same project set up on a Ubuntu 22.04 laptop, and this did not seem to be affected on that platform.

@geetfun I am having both of the above issues with a cleanly installed example on linux mint 20

I can confirm this is also happening on WSL running on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS

Can someone please set up a gist or repo that reproduces what you're seeing? As I mentioned above, I need help to reproduce and diagnose the issue.

I have the same issue. It had no errors but only generated some styles not all what I used in my views. Im using rails 7.0.5. And not it is a problem from there or from this gem

With a new app generated yesterday I am not experiencing this issue

Closing. If someone is having this issue, then please open a new issue with instructions on how to reproduce it.
