Usage

Within your gatsby-config.js add the following.

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: `gatsby-plugin-windicss`,
      options: {
        // see https://github.com/windicss/vite-plugin-windicss/blob/main/packages/plugin-utils/src/options.ts
      },
    },
  ],
};

This module won’t work with tailwindcss, you will need to remove it.

 plugins: [
   {
     resolve: `gatasby-plugin-postcss`,
     options: {
       // ...
-      require("tailwindcss"),
       // ...
     },
   },
 ],

If you have a tailwind.config.js, please rename it to windi.config.js or windi.config.ts.

See here for configuration details.
