To use smooth-scroll from Tailwind CSS in a React.js application, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install Tailwind CSS: First, make sure you have Tailwind CSS installed in your React.js project. You can install it using npm or yarn:
1
npm install tailwindcss


1
yarn add tailwindcss


  1. Enable the smooth-scroll utility: Tailwind CSS provides a utility class scroll-smooth that can be used to enable smooth scrolling behavior. Add the following code to your Tailwind CSS configuration file (usually tailwind.config.js or tailwind.config.ts):

module.exports = {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      scrollBehavior: {
        smooth: 'smooth',
      },
    },
  },
}


  1. Apply the smooth-scroll utility to your elements: To enable smooth scrolling for an element, apply the scroll-smooth utility class to it. For example, if you want to enable smooth scrolling for a

<div className="scroll-smooth">
  {/* Content */}
</div>


  1. Update your CSS styles: Make sure to include the scroll-smooth class in your CSS styles. You can import Tailwind CSS in your React component and use the scroll-smooth class directly in your JSX code, like this:

import 'tailwindcss/base.css';
import 'tailwindcss/components.css';
import 'tailwindcss/utilities.css';

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div className="scroll-smooth">
      {/* Content */}
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;


  1. Test the smooth-scroll behavior: After adding the scroll-smooth class to your elements, test the smooth scrolling behavior in your React.js application by scrolling the page or a scrollable element with the applied utility class.


By following these steps, you can easily use smooth-scroll from Tailwind CSS in your React.js application.
