What it does

Flowbite provides a free, open-source UI component library and front-end framework based on Tailwind CSS, helping startup founders quickly build responsive and customizable user interfaces

Install / run

npm install flowbite

When to use it

•When you need a lightweight and customizable UI framework for your startup's web application
•When you want to leverage the power of Tailwind CSS without starting from scratch
•When you need a wide range of pre-built UI components to speed up your front-end development

Quick start

1Create a new HTML file and add the Flowbite CSS file by including the line `<link rel='stylesheet' href='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/flowbite@1.5.3/dist/flowbite.min.css' />` in the head section
2Initialize Flowbite by adding the script tag `<script src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/flowbite@1.5.3/dist/flowbite.bundle.js'></script>` before the closing body tag
3Explore the available UI components and copy the HTML code for the desired component, such as the navigation bar or button, from the Flowbite documentation
4Paste the copied HTML code into your project and customize the classes and attributes as needed to fit your design requirements
5Use the included JavaScript functions to add interactivity to your components, such as toggling a dropdown menu or modal window

Ready-to-paste prompt

<button class='bg-orange-500 hover:bg-orange-700 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4 rounded'>Click me</button>

Heads up: Make sure to include the `flowbite` class in the HTML element that contains the Flowbite components, as some components rely on this class to function correctly
