```

## Usage

```javascript
// tailwind.config.js
{
theme: { // defaults to these values
patterns: {
opacities: {
100: "1",
80: ".80",
60: ".60",
40: ".40",
20: ".20",
10: ".10",
5: ".05",
},

32: "8rem",
}
}
},
plugins: [
require('tailwindcss-bg-patterns'),
],
}
```

## Background Patterns

Included are the following patterns:

- Lines (`pattern-lines`)
- Vertical Lines (`pattern-vertical-lines`)
- Diagonal Lines (`pattern-diagonal-lines`)
- Rectangles (`pattern-rectangles`)
- Rhombus (`pattern-rhombus`)
- Dots (`pattern-dots`)
- Boxes (`pattern-boxes`)
- Cross (`pattern-cross`)
- Zigzag (`pattern-zigzag`)
- Zigzag 3D (`pattern-zigzag-3d`)
- Isometric (`pattern-isometric`)
- Wavy (`pattern-wavy`)
- Triangles (`pattern-triangles`)
- Moon (`pattern-moon`)
- Paper (`pattern-paper`)

## Utilities

The plugin provides utility classes to control the foreground and background colors (based on your theme colors) as well as opacity and sizing (can be controlled in your theme, too):

**Opacity**: `pattern-opacity-80` applies opacity of `0.8`

By default the plugin comes with the following options for opacity: `pattern-opacity-100`, `pattern-opacity-80`, `pattern-opacity-60`, `pattern-opacity-40`, `pattern-opacity-20`, `pattern-opacity-10`, `pattern-opacity-5`x

**Size**: `pattern-size-8` applies a size of `2rem`

By default the plugin comes with the following options for size: `pattern-size-1`, `pattern-size-2`, `pattern-size-4`, `pattern-size-6`, `pattern-size-8`, `pattern-size-16`, `pattern-size-20`, `pattern-size-24`, `pattern-size-32`

**Color**: `pattern-indigo-600` (foreground) and `pattern-bg-white` (background)

Colors will be extracted from your theme.

## Example

Applying the isometric background pattern to a div:

```html


```

Which results in:
