# 8 Tailwind CSS resources to help your next project takeoff

> Eight Tailwind CSS resources — component libraries, typography and layout helpers, and developer-experience plugins — to speed up your next project.

Let's face it, no matter whether it's our first or hundredth time, staring at a blank Tailwind CSS is intimidating. The enormity of the task at hand starts to crash over you as the excitement begins to build. Here are eight resources that I reach for first when I need to move quickly or want inspiration that may prove helpful to you.

At the end of list I will let you know which of the following I add to every Tailwind CSS project, NO MATTER WHAT!

## Theme Components

- [praveenjuge/kutty](https://github.com/praveenjuge/kutty)
- [estevanmaito/windmill-dashboard](https://github.com/estevanmaito/windmill-dashboard)

## Text & Typography Components

- [jhta/tailwindcss-truncate-multiline](https://github.com/jhta/tailwindcss-truncate-multiline)
- [tailwindlabs/tailwindcss-typography](https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss-typography)

## Layout Components

- [tailwindlabs/tailwindcss-custom-forms](https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss-custom-forms)
- [Log1x/tailwindcss-container-sizes](https://github.com/Log1x/tailwindcss-container-sizes)

## Bonus: Developer XP

- [rogden/tailwind-config-viewer](https://github.com/rogden/tailwind-config-viewer)
- [jorenvanhee/tailwindcss-debug-screens](https://github.com/jorenvanhee/tailwindcss-debug-screens)

Out of all of these great resources, I find [Tailwind Debug Screens](https://github.com/jorenvanhee/tailwindcss-debug-screens) to be the most helpful, most of the time. In addition to the time you will save by using the plugin, it will also help you create better responsive designs and become more familiar with sizing in Tailwind by sight.

Happy coding!
