Use with Farm - Flowbite React

This guide provides three ways to integrate Flowbite React with Farm:

1. Quick Start: Create a new project with everything pre-configured
2. Add to Existing Project: Add Flowbite React to an existing Farm project
3. Manual Setup: Set up everything from scratch manually

Quick Start#

The fastest way to get started is using our project creation CLI, which sets up a new Farm project with Flowbite React, Tailwind CSS, and all necessary configurations:

npx create-flowbite-react@latest -t farm 

This will:

• Create a new Farm project
• Install and configure Tailwind CSS
• Set up Flowbite React with all required dependencies
• Configure dark mode support
• Set up example components

Add to Existing Project#

If you already have a Farm project and want to add Flowbite React, you can use our initialization CLI:

npx flowbite-react@latest init 

This will automatically:

• Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
• Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
• Set up necessary configurations

Manual Setup#

If you prefer to set everything up manually or need more control over the configuration, follow these steps:

1. Create Project#

Create a new Farm project:

npx create-farm@latest farm-project cd farm-project 

When prompted:

• Select "React"

Install PostCSS:

npm install @farmfe/js-plugin-postcss postcss 

Add @farmfe/js-plugin-postcss to your farm.config.ts file:

import { defineConfig } from "@farmfe/core"; import farmPluginPostcss from "@farmfe/js-plugin-postcss";  export default defineConfig({  plugins: ["@farmfe/plugin-react", farmPluginPostcss()], }); 

2. Configure Tailwind CSS#

Install Tailwind CSS and its dependencies:

npm install -D tailwindcss @tailwindcss/postcss 

Create a postcss.config.mjs file:

touch postcss.config.mjs 

Add @tailwindcss/postcss to your postcss.config.mjs file:

/** @type {import('postcss-load-config').Config} */ export default {  plugins: {  "@tailwindcss/postcss": {},  }, }; 

Update the css file src/index.css to include Tailwind CSS:

@import "tailwindcss"; 

3. Install Flowbite React#

Install Flowbite React:

npx flowbite-react@latest init 

This will:

• Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
• Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
• Configure Vite to include Flowbite React plugin

Try it out#

Now that you have successfully installed Flowbite React you can start using the components from the library:

// src/main.tsx import { Button } from "flowbite-react";  export function Main() {  return (  <>  <Button>Click me</Button>  </>  ); }
