Hello folks!
It's been a quiet week for the Tailwind Labs team, glad they're taking it easy after such a great launch for the job board. Coming up we have the Heroicons v2 launch, a new template, and Headless UI v.17 so stay tuned!

🌟 News
No major official news folks, but on the community side, our friend Simon is teaching a Tailwind CSS workshop! Like the tweet says, you can get a pretty big discount if you sign up via the Pro Tailwind site. The first one was this last Thursday but I think there'll be more in the future.
For those of you who don't know, Simon regularly posts videos about Tailwind CSS on his youtube channel and tweets a lot about tailwind too! He's also working on an advanced Tailwind course over at Pro Tailwind and I must admit I'm eagerly waiting for it to launch 😍.
Teaching my first workshop this Thursday 🎉

:has(): the family selector
You're probably tired of how often I have mentioned the:has() selector lately but I promise this one is important. The selector will be supported on Chrome on the 105 release, which is just around the corner!
This is huge since the current release version is 104 so adoption is really picking up. We're still waiting for Firefox to implement it but that's planned. I'm so excited to play around with it when it lands!
Not All Zeros are Equal
This article was quite a ride, it's almost like a detective story! The author had an issue where their CSS was breaking on production and it turns out it was because a 0 value was breaking a particular CSS rule. The rest of the article explains why that happened and what to keep in mind when working with zeros in CSS.
How to use Tailwind CSS with Remix
Here's a detailed guide on how to set up Tailwind CSS with the popular full-stack framework Remix. Long story short, you'll need an additional npm script to set up the build step for your CSS and there are some quirks with adding it to Remix, which the article explains in detail, with examples.

Become a Pro at building components & layouts with CSS Flexbox and Grid with the Complete Guide to CSS Flex and Grid ebook by Shruti Balasa. I actually read this book and LOVED IT. I have been using flexbox and CSS grid for years and I still learned quite a few things from the book.
I recently finished the "Ten++ Ways to Make Money as a Developer" ebook from Florian Pop and I really liked it. Since I'm a freelancer I already knew some of the methods he mentioned but others really blew my mind, for example, I didn't know streaming could be so profitable 🤯!
