In this episode, Lucas and Luna dig into a specific problem that many developers encounter: a bloated Tailwind CSS production bundle. They trace the issue to unused utility classes generated by Tailwind's Just-in-Time engine, explain why the default content configuration often misses important template paths, and walk through a concrete fix using the `content` option to reduce bundle size from 300KB to under 10KB. They also cover how to audit your bundle with PurgeCSS stats and how to avoid common pitfalls with dynamic class names. If you've ever wondered why your Tailwind CSS feels heavy, this episode gives you a clear diagnosis and a fix you can implement today. #TailwindCSS #CSSBundle #WebPerformance #BundleSize #PurgeCSS #JITEngine #Frontend #WebDev #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #WebDevelopmentPodcast #LucasAndLuna #CSSOptimization #DynamicClasses #ContentConfig #BuildArtifacts #SafelistPattern Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
