Inspect. Edit. Build.
Tailwind, in your browser.
Tail Lens is the fastest way to work with Tailwind CSS — visually inspect, edit, preview classes without switching tools.
Why Tail Lens?
We built the tool we wished we had while working with Tailwind in browser devtools
Working with Tailwind inside browser devtools can get painful:
- It's hard to read long class lists
- Switching between docs and editor kills your flow
- Previewing changes is time-consuming and fragile
- Debugging which class is applied or overridden is messy
Tail Lens fixes all of that:
- Visually edit classes right in the browser
- Hover to preview layout changes instantly
- Inspect spacing, font, and layout info on hover
- Toggle, copy, undo — with keyboard shortcuts
- Built for Tailwind v3 + custom configs
