this is how my current directory is. I have been trying to resolve the issues, it has not been working. I have installed and reinstalled tailwindcss postcss config etc a lot of times it does not work. my node version is up to date. I want to build this webpage however. I think the issue lies with the new version of the tailwind. fix this issue please. search the web think deeply. do this. also basically I created my own tailwindconfig file and added this
module.exports = {
content: ["./src/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx,html}"],
theme: {
extend: {},
},
plugins: [],
};
created my own .postcssrc.json file earlier postcssconfig file which i deleted
{
"plugins": {
"@tailwindcss/postcss": {}
}
}
have index.html and index.css
<link href="/output.css" rel="stylesheet" />
@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;
index.js
import "./index.css";
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import App from "./assets/App";
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));
‘render’ here is strikethrough also . none of this has worked. search the web think deeply and please help. u have my directory, tell me what to do.
always endups in this error:
ERROR in ./src/index.css (./node_modules/css-loader/dist/cjs.js??ruleSet[1].rules[1].oneOf[5].use[1]!./node_modules/postcss-loader/dist/cjs.js??ruleSet[1].rules[1].oneOf[5].use[2]!./node_modules/source-map-loader/dist/cjs.js!./src/index.css)
Module build failed (from ./node_modules/postcss-loader/dist/cjs.js):
Error: It looks like you’re trying to use tailwindcss directly as a PostCSS plugin. The PostCSS plugin has moved to a separate package, so to continue using Tailwind CSS with PostCSS you’ll need to install @tailwindcss/postcss and update your PostCSS configuration.

Here is an overview.
Project Overview:
You’re building a web application called WatCourse, which helps students check which major requirements they have met by uploading their unofficial transcript (PDF) and selecting their major.
The backend is built using FastAPI (Python), which parses the transcript and checks the major requirements.
The frontend is built using React with Tailwind CSS for styling and Framer Motion for animations.
You want a dark-themed, sleek UI with a navbar, a hero section with a tagline, an upload button, a major selection dropdown, a video/banner section explaining features, an FAQ section, and a results page displaying completed and pending requirements.
Current Issues:
Tailwind CSS Setup Issues:
You’re getting a postcss-loader error indicating that Tailwind’s PostCSS plugin has moved to a separate package (@tailwindcss/postcss).
You’ve tried reinstalling Tailwind, PostCSS, and related dependencies multiple times, but the error persists.
Your postcss.config.js file may not be correctly set up.
Project Structure & Dependencies:
Your frontend has a proper directory structure (src/components, src/pages, public/index.html, tailwind.config.js), but Tailwind isn’t working.
You installed dependencies using npm install -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer, but it’s still not working.
Running npx tailwindcss init did not work because Tailwind v4 changed the CLI commands.
React & Tailwind Integration Issues:
Your index.css correctly imports Tailwind (@tailwind base;, @tailwind components;, @tailwind utilities;), but Tailwind is not being processed.
index.js is using ReactDOM.render(), but it’s deprecated in newer React versions.
I have done everything except the frontend. tell me what I can do, anything else you need
