Honestly, thanks! This thing cannot succeed without community support and contributions. 🍻

Tailwind/Gutenberg is broken into modules to the extent that it can be so as to not wastefully generate classes which aren't utilized.

If submitting a PR:

Do not utilize default theme() keys in your module code

In your module avoid utilizing theme configuration values outside of the theme.gutenberg key.

Example:

  // 🚫 Bad
  const cover = ({
    '.wp-block-cover': {
      paddingTop: theme('spacing.2xl'),
    }
  })

  // 🤟🏽 Good
  const options = theme('gutenberg.blocks.cover')
  const cover = ({
    '.wp-block-cover': {
      paddingTop: theme('gutenberg.spacing.vertical.default'),
    }
  })
}

The one exception to utilizing theme() is when providing default values in tailwind.config.js, and in that case you should absolutely use it and stick to keys found in the stock tailwind config file.

Do not hardcode property values

Try not to set values directly. Try to source everything from the configuration file.

Example:

  // 🚫 Bad
  const cover = ({
    '.wp-block-cover': {
      paddingTop: '2rem',
    }
  })

  // 🤟🏽 Good
  const options = theme('gutenberg.blocks.cover')
  const cover = ({
    '.wp-block-cover': {
      paddingTop: options.verticalPadding,
    }
  })
}

Thanks!
