08. Take the plugin for a spin!

🐇 TL;DR

• We’ve got more work to do, but…
• I say it’s time we test our plugin in an existing Tailwind CSS project!
• Let’s add our color themes to the Calendar App 🎉

🐢 Background

Our Tailwind CSS plugin is now “self-contained”: it handles all the various parts of wiring up support for multiple themes within itself!

There’s definitely more work needed before the plugin becomes truly reusable, but… now is a great time to test it out on an existing Tailwind CSS project!

I’ve prepared a “starting point” version of the Calendar App without any of the theming support in place. We’ll use this to test our new plugin.

🏆 Your challenge 🏆

We’re going to spin up an instance of the Calendar App sarter via Gitpod.

You can also clone the repo locally, if you want to play with it after the workshop.

Let’s do this one together, as a group. I’ll drive and share my screen, but feel free to ask questions and ask me to poke around!
