    Complete local installation guide for TW elements: Step-by-step setup instructions.


    Introduction

    TW elements is a comprehensive library of pre-designed components and UI elements built on top of the Tailwind CSS framework. This local installation guide will walk you through the steps required to set up and use TW elements in your development environment. By following these instructions, you'll be able to leverage the power of TW elements to enhance your web development projects.

    Note: If you need more comprehensive support, we recommend you our tutorials, which will introduce you step by step to our library, its entire environment and Tailwind CSS itself.

    Step 1: Clone the repository

    Note: Make sure that that you have Git installed on your machine, as it is required to clone repositories.

    To clone the TW elements repository from GitHub, follow these steps:

    1. Go to the TW elements repository on GitHub.

    2. Click on the "Code" button, located above the file list on the repository's main page.

    3. In the dropdown that appears, click on the clipboard icon to copy the repository's clone URL.

    4. Open your preferred command line interface (CLI) or terminal.

    5. Navigate to the directory where you want to clone the repository using the cd command:

    • terminal
            
                
        cd /path/to/directory
        
            
        

    6. In the terminal, paste the previously copied clone URL and run the following command to clone the repository:

    • terminal
            
                
        git clone https://github.com/mdbootstrap/Tailwind-Elements.git
        
            
        

    7. Once the cloning process is complete, navigate into the cloned repository's directory.

    8. If you are searching for specific versions of TW elements, you can use the following command to list all available tags:

    • terminal
            
                
        git tag -l
        
            
        

    9. Then you can checkout the desired version (e.g. v1.0.0-beta1) using the following command:

    • terminal
            
                
        git checkout v1.0.0-beta1
        
            
        

    Step 2: Install dependencies

    Note: Make sure that that you have Node.js (LTS) installed on your machine.

    To install all necessary dependencies, follow these steps:

    1. Open your preferred command line interface (CLI) or terminal.

    2. Navigate to the root directory of your project using the cd command:

    • terminal
            
                
        cd /path/to/project
        
            
        

    3. Run the following command to install all dependencies:

    • terminal
            
                
        npm install
        
            
        

    This command will read the package.json file and download all the necessary dependencies into a node_modules folder.

    4. In addition to installing the project dependencies, you may also need to install the dependencies required for the documentation. To ensure it run the following command:

    • terminal
            
                
        npm run docs:install
        
            
        
    Note: Ensure that Hugo is installed on your device as it is a prerequisite for accessing our documentation.

    Step 3: Running the Demo App and Documentation

    Once you have successfully installed the dependencies for your project, you can proceed with utilizing them in your development workflow.

    Note: Before attempting to start a specific version of TW elements, it is crucial to ensure that you have followed all the instructions outlined in Step 1.

    1. To start the demo application, run the following command in your terminal:

    • terminal
            
                
        npm start
        
            
        

    2. Launch the documentation by executing the following command:

    • terminal
            
                
        npm run docs:start
        
            
        
    Note: If you encounter problems following the command above, please verify your Hugo version. There might be compatibility issues with the latest versions of Hugo. Version v0.106.0 and earlier should work without any issues.
    Note: Prior to running the documentation, it is important to execute the command npm run build to compile the Tailwind plugin and update the files located in the /site directory.
