Hey everyone. Am I the only one not able to make apps anymore in Cursor etc:
Since next 15.2 my Ai cant build a basic next js app using tailwind.. I just get so many errors around tailwind, globals and what not.. anyone has a solution to this? And also: What is the most stable(newest) next.js and react version you would suggest me to stay on for now? Thanks!

Tailwind is installed and you can use it like you would before, it’s just that they removed the need to use a config js/ts file and they moved to css files to set up the theme and config

You can go to your globals.css and see the tailwind import at the top. Check the Tailwind v4 upgrade guide and docs for the details.

It’s more of an installation issue, when I try latest next app and tailwind setup, can’t get tailwind to work with next 15.2

Using cursor to set it up for me
Before I was able to make an app from scratch with:

latest next js typescript
Tailwind
Tailwind merge
Next themes + theme provider

I think AI is not updated enough
Even for 15.2 there will be exact way to install tailwind
Southeastern blueberry beeOP
Well actually I just cant get tailwind to install normally on 15.2
It just does not create the tailwind files when clicking yes use tailwind in the next setup
American Foxhound
it seems like there is issue
Oh but that’s not AI’s fault.
The recent version of Next.js ships with Tailwind v4 which doesn’t need the *tailwind.config * file anymore
