  2. • Text/border/background colours • Font size/family/weight • Alignment • Padding/margin/negative

    margin • Flexbox • Positioning • Lists • z-index • Opacity @opdavies
  3. • Screenreader visibility • Placeholder colour • first-child, last-child, nth-child

    • CSS Grid • Transition • Transform • Spacing / Divide • Focus ring • Text clamping @opdavies
  4. # Add Tailwind, PostCSS, Autoprefixer, PostCSS CLI yarn add cross-env
