Winden

Introduction

Tailwind CSS is fantastic, with a small footprint. It works seamlessly for styling themes. However, when it comes to Full Site Editing (FSE) and fine-tuning individual blocks or patterns, you typically need to set up Node.js on your server to extract classes used in blocks and compile them.

That was nearly impossible until Winden came along.

🤝 Winden works on any server, even shared hosting, with no need to install Node.js!

More builders integration is in progress.
