Example CSS Setup

If you haven’t set up Tailwind CSS yet, here’s a basic example of how to do it:

1. Install Tailwind CSS:

npm install -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer
npx tailwindcss init -p

2. Configure your tailwind.config.js file:

module.exports = {
  content: ["./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}", "./public/index.html"],
  theme: {
    extend: {},
  },
  plugins: [],
};

3. Include Tailwind in your CSS file: Add the following lines to your main CSS file to include Tailwind’s base, components, and utilities:

@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

Customization

Feel free to customize the Tailwind classes used in the DateField component as needed to fit the design of your application.
