Hello Product Hunt πŸ‘‹! It has been six months since Tailscan 2 has launched and something new has been in the making ever since ✨. Today I'm proud to show you Tailscan Devtools! Tailscan Devtools is a deep integration within the browser devtools that makes debugging and building your (or any) website with Tailwind CSS much easier than ever before. In the last 1.5 years, more than one thousand users have downloaded Tailscan and improved their workflow and are now debugging and prototyping faster than ever! Why use Tailscan Devtools, you ask? Browser devtools are great, but they aren't exactly made for a utility library like Tailwind CSS. Without Tailscan Devtools: ❌ Classes are purged: If you use Chrome Devtools to debug and build your website, you run into trouble when adding Tailwind classes because all the unused classes are purged from the CSS! ❌ No real-time feedback: You can't see your changes right away and prototyping or trying out different classes means you have to switch back and forth between your browser and code editor. ❌ No autocomplete: Browser devtools don't suggest classes to you, so if you happen to forget a class, you'll have to go to the Tailwind documentation first. Time consuming! Tailscan Devtools answers these questions with a deep integration to browser devtools to make working with Tailwind CSS in the browser an absolute breeze. βœ… Debug and build with Tailwind right within the devtools, classes are automatically compiled in real time. βœ… Quickly copy the class list or element with all the changes. βœ… Discover how any Tailwind-based website is built and what CSS is generated by which class. Besides the new functionalities in the Tailscan Devtools update, Tailscan can: βœ… Be used as a hover & inspect window as well (if you prefer this over browser devtools). βœ… Work with your own Tailwind config, so all custom classes are supported as well. βœ… Convert any element on any website to a Tailwind-based component. To celebrate the launch of Tailscan Devtools, there are a limited number of discounted lifetime licenses available for the next few days. Grab the deal before it runs out! I'd love to hear your questions, feedback and comments. Thank you very much πŸ™Œ Have a great day! Erwin

Hey Erwin, congrats on launching Tailscan Devtools! πŸŽ‰ It sounds like a total game-changer for anyone using Tailwind CSS. Making debugging and building websites smoother and more intuitive is no small feat. Excited to see how it streamlines the workflow for devs. Cheers to your success and innovation! πŸš€

As a tailwind user, I can see the value in this. Looks very promising, but I would probably prefer a free trial to a money-back guarantee unless I was part of an organisation that already uses it. In any case, you have my vote, as I support anything that makes CSS less painful !!
Erwin AI
@sofia_kyriazidi that's fair feedback! I'll consider this for the future. For now, you have my promise for a refund in case you don't get (enough) value from Tailscan.

Tailscan successfully will reduce the pain of debugging tailwind. I will try this out. @erwin_lengkeek, congratulations on the launch.

Really nice, the dev experience looks amazing! Do you ever plan on making a local version? Buying a lifetime subscription to a web app always scares me (having lived through a big tech acquisition where our product was "sunset" aka killed 😡).
Erwin AI
@bradydowling Tailscan is entirely client-side :) The only thing on the back-end are license checks. And these checks will be deactivated if ever I decide to stop supporting Tailscan, so it'll work forever. But I don't have any intention on stopping. So rest assured, you can buy the Tailscan perpetual license without any worry!
