Blazorise Tailwind Usage

Quickly install Blazorise with Tailwind, one of the world's most popular Blazor UI framework.

Blazorise Tailwind provider is made possible with the help of Flowbite, an open-source Tailwind CSS Components.

Note: Before proceeding, ensure you have already created a Blazor project. If not, the simplest way to start with Blazorise is by using our Templates.

Install Packages

First step is to install a Tailwind provider for Blazorise:

Install-Package Blazorise.Tailwind

You also need to install the icon package:

Install-Package Blazorise.Icons.FontAwesome

Add Static Files

Modify your project's HTML template to include the necessary CSS files. The files you add depend on whether you're working with a WebAssembly or Server project:

For WebAssembly, update index.html.
For Server, update _Layout.cshtml or _Host.cshtml.
For .NET 8, update App.razor.

Add these lines inside the <head> section:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:wght@300;400;500;600;700;800&amp;display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/flowbite@1.5.4/dist/flowbite.min.css" />
<link href="_content/Blazorise.Icons.FontAwesome/v6/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script>
<script src="_content/Blazorise.Tailwind/blazorise.tailwind.config.js?v=1.6.0.0"></script>

<link href="_content/Blazorise/blazorise.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="_content/Blazorise.Tailwind/blazorise.tailwind.css" rel="stylesheet" />

In the same file add the following. It should be placed just before the default blazor script.

<script src="https://unpkg.com/flowbite@1.5.4/dist/flowbite.js"></script>

Note: Don't forget to remove Bootstrap JS and CSS files that comes with the default Blazor project template.

Add Imports

In your main _Imports.razor add:

@using Blazorise

Register Services

Add the following lines to the relevant sections of Program.cs.

using Blazorise;
using Blazorise.Tailwind;
using Blazorise.Icons.FontAwesome;

builder.Services
    .AddBlazorise()
    .AddTailwindProviders()
    .AddFontAwesomeIcons();
