Tailwind CSS UI Generator

Your data never leaves your browser

Visual shadow, gradient, and border-radius editor with real-time preview. Generates both CSS and Tailwind classes.

Tailwind CSS is the dominant utility-first framework for frontend development. While its predefined classes cover most use cases, designers frequently need custom shadows, gradients, and border radii that fall outside the default scale. devmeldex's free Tailwind CSS generator provides a visual, real-time editor that outputs both standard CSS and Tailwind arbitrary-value syntax. Design visually, implement precisely — no more guessing pixel values or converting between CSS and Tailwind.

Example: See It in Action

Input

I need a soft elevation shadow for a card component

Output

shadow-[4px_4px_12px_0px_rgba(6,214,160,0.30)]

The visual editor lets you adjust X/Y offset, blur, spread, and colour to create the exact shadow, then outputs the Tailwind arbitrary value class.

Frequently Asked Questions
