README
# tailwindcss-claymorphism
Add claymorphism style classes to your [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/what-is-tailwind/) project.
> This plugin is inspired by [clay.css](https://github.com/codeAdrian/clay.css).
## Background
> Claymorphism is a fresh new concept. The name was coined by [MichaΕ Malewicz](https://hype4.academy/articles/design/claymorphism-in-user-interfaces) and the designers are excited to explore the possibilities of this approach to UI design.
>
> It features inflated fluffy 3D elements which look charming and introduce a much more vibrant look compared to the usual flat designs.
>
> What sets claymorphism apart from neumorphism is that it floats above the background instead of being connected to it, eliminating accessibility issues and design restrictions of the latter.
## Install
With PNPM:
```SH
pnpm add -D tailwindcss-claymorphism
```
Then load the plugin:
```JS
// tailwind.config.cjs
module.exports = {
content: [/* ... */],
plugins: [require("tailwindcss-claymorphism")],
};
```
## Usage
To achieve claymorphism, you need to craft the following properties:
- `background-color`
- `box-shadow`
- `border-radius`
The plugin provides utilities classes `clay--` setting `box-shadow` and `background-color` for you:
```HTML
```
Then all you need to do is crafting the round corner with build-in utilities class `rounded`(to make the element look like [Squircle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squircle)):
```HTML
```
