Tailwind CSS From Scratch - Learn by Building Projects

Updated in May 2025. This course now features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. This course starts with a coding Sandbox to explore colors, typography, spacing, flex classes, and more in Tailwind CSS, building a strong foundation before small projects. We then create six modern, clean landing-page websites, designed with Frontend Mentor: Clipboard Website (Flexbox and alignment), Loopstudios (responsive mobile menu and gradient overlays), Shortly (responsive menu and JavaScript form validation), Testimonial Grid (using Tailwind’s grid classes), Fylo (light/dark mode and dynamic FAQ tabs with JavaScript), and Bookmark (dynamic backgrounds, hamburger menu, and JavaScript tabs). By course end, you'll efficiently use Tailwind CSS utility classes, create and edit layouts quickly, configure custom styles, understand Tailwind fundamentals, set up an environment with Tailwind CLI, and use breakpoint classes and media queries. This course suits those aiming to improve website and UI layout skills, with basic CSS grid, layout, and JavaScript knowledge being advantageous.
