This repository will change the rendering of forms in formio.js so that it uses html and classes compatible with the Semantic UI framework.

Install

npm install @tsed/tailwind-formio --save
npm install --save-dev postcss-nested@4

Tailwind and create-react-app

If you use create-react-app, you'll need to follow the official tailwind guide installation here: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/guides/create-react-app

Configure postcss

Edit the craco.config.js (or postcss.config.js) and add the postcss-nested to the postcss plugins list:

module.exports = {
  style: {
    postcss: {
      plugins: [
        require('tailwindcss'),
+       require('postcss-nested')
        require('autoprefixer')
      ]
    }
  }
}

Or:

export default {
  plugins: {
    'tailwindcss/nesting': {},
    tailwindcss: {},
    autoprefixer: {},
  },
}

Configure tailwind

Generate the initial tailwind.config.js with the following command:

npx tailwindcss-cli@latest init

Edit the tailwind.config.js and copy the following content:

const primary = "hsla(208, 100%, 43%, 1)";
const secondary = "hsla(190, 81%, 42%, 1)";

module.exports = {
  purge: [],
  darkMode: false, // or 'media' or 'class'
  theme: {
    extend: {
      colors: {
        primary: {
          DEFAULT: primary,
          50: "hsla(208, 100%, 91%, 1)",
          100: "hsla(208, 100%, 83%, 1)",
          200: "hsla(208, 100%, 75%, 1)",

          400: "hsla(208, 100%, 59%, 1)",
          500: "hsla(208, 100%, 51%, 1)",
          600: primary,
          700: "hsla(208, 100%, 35%, 1)",
          800: "hsla(208, 100%, 27%, 1)",

          200: "hsla(190, 81%, 74%, 1)",
          300: "hsla(190, 81%, 66%, 1)",
          400: "hsla(190, 81%, 58%, 1)",
          500: "hsla(190, 81%, 50%, 1)",
          600: secondary,
          700: "hsla(190, 81%, 34%, 1)",
          800: "hsla(190, 81%, 28%, 1)",
          900: "hsla(190, 81%, 20%, 1)"

      },
      borderWidth: {
        1: "1px",
        5: "5px"
      },
      borderRadius: {
        half: "50%",
        full: "100%"
      },
      zIndex: {
        1: 1,
        2: 2,
        3: 3,
        4: 4,
        5: 5,
        6: 6
      },
      fill: {
        transparent: "transparent"
      },
      flex: {
        2: "2 2 0%",
        3: "3 3 0%"
      }
    },
    outline: {
      none: ["2px solid transparent", "2px"],
      white: ["2px dotted white", "2px"],
      black: ["2px dotted black", "2px"]
    }
  },
  variants: {
    extend: {}
  },
  corePlugins: {
    borderCollapse: true
  },
  plugins: []
};

Then create a tailwind.css in styles directory and add the following lines:

@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

Import the tailwind.css in the index.css created by create-react-app:

@import "~formiojs/dist/formio.full.css";
@import "./tailwind.css";
@import "~@tsed/tailwind-formio/styles/index.css";

Optionally, you can import fonts and icons:

@import "~formiojs/dist/formio.full.css";
@import "./tailwind.css";
+@import "./fonts/source-sans-pro/index.css";
+@import "./fonts/inconsolata/index.css";
+@import "./fonts/bxicons/index.css";
@import "~@tsed/tailwind-formio/styles/index.css";

Now, we can configure formio to use the tailwind template in our React application. So edit the index.js (or index.ts):

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
+import { Formio, Templates } from "@tsed/react-formio";
+import tailwind from "@tsed/tailwind-formio";
import './index.css';
import App from './App';
import reportWebVitals from './reportWebVitals';

+Formio.use(tailwind);
+Templates.framework = "tailwind";

ReactDOM.render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <App />
  </React.StrictMode>,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

// If you want to start measuring performance in your app, pass a function
// to log results (for example: reportWebVitals(console.log))
// or send to an analytics endpoint. Learn more: https://bit.ly/CRA-vitals
reportWebVitals();

Finally, start the application!
