@heybourn or @praveenperera do you mind checking on this? i see some people are upvoting this PR.

[vintprox]

Oh no, we're stuck here it seems.

[praveenperera]

Hey I can check but unfortunately @heybourn hasn't been around to do new releases.

I tried to contact him directly a while ago with no luck either. Should we look into publishing a new extension? Maybe Microsoft has a way for contributors to claim co-ownership of abandoned extensions so we can ship the update to our existing users?

[praveenperera]

@hacknug do you want to start a fork and release a new version? I will also try and help

[vintprox]

@hacknug @praveenperera Then call this fork a "Footwind" 😁 I even have an idea for logo.

[vintprox]

I tried to contact Ryan via Open Collective page and sent a trick. I hope it will be resolved without more forks (imagine the confusion "Headwind" and "Footwind" would bring 😂).

[hacknug]

Let's give it a few days before forking in case Ryan gets back to us.

Maybe it would also be a good idea to discuss the idea of adding this to the official extension? It would make it easier for devs since they would only need to install one extension. This change could also help us tackle #5 which imho is one of the first things we should try to solve for v3 of this extension.

Thoughts on this @adamwathan @bradlc? I know this isn't an option for this year since you plan two months of work ahead, but maybe there's a way we can coordinate after TailwindCSS v3 is out and aim for a Q1 of 2022?

[adamwathan]

Yeah we have talked about doing this for years and Brad has prototyped it in the past, we've even done work in core to prepare for supporting it but the biggest blocker has always been finding a way to do it that wasn't hacky or without a lot of downsides. We have a proof-of-concept implementation as a Prettier plugin already but got hung up on something and can't remember exactly what it was 🤔 Definitely something hoping to sink our teeth into properly soon though.

@hacknug can't see Footwind in the marketplace yet ;)
@heybourn are you active now by any chance?

[n17r053v3n]

Hey, I have no idea if anyone is still active here cuz it looks like not.
I've been able to work my way out of using cjs and using mjs for those files that are js by default in root directory (sveltekit) but I have not been able to find a way to use it with cjs eve though it can be merged above i see no one with write access had merged it. Do you know of any other way to use tailwind formatting feature than this plugin? I have tried some prettier node extensions but i cannot make it work.

You can either use the official Prettier plugin for an config-less approach or look into eslint-plugin-tailwindcss if you want to configure the order of your classes.
