Background Image In Tailwind CSS
Tailwind Background Image class is a powerful feature that provides several options for setting background images to Html elements on a web page.
This class can accept multiple values, with a class for each property, making it an excellent alternative to the CSS background-image property.
In this article, we will provide an overview of the different Background Image classes in Tailwind with examples and explain how to use them.
Tailwind Background Image
Tailwind Background Image class includes several classes for different directions, such as top, bottom, left, and right.
For instance, using the class “bg-gradient-to-t” sets the linear gradient to the top, while “bg-gradient-to-r” sets the linear-gradient to the right.
It is essential to note that you can specify colors using the following syntax:
“from-red-400 via-blue-500 to-green-500.”
In above example, “from” statement specifies the starting color (red-400), while the “via” keyword indicates the intermediate color (blue-500), and the “to” statement indicates the last color (green-500).
Syntax
To use the Tailwind Background Image class, you need to include the class in an element’s class attribute, as shown in the syntax below:
<element class="bg-gradient-to-{direction}"></element>Tailwind Background Image Values:
- bg-none : This class removes any linear-gradient.
- bg-gradient-to-t : Using this class, the linear-gradient is set to the top.
- bg-gradient-to-tr : Using this class, the linear-gradient is set to the top right.
- bg-gradient-to-r : This class sets the linear-gradient to right.
- bg-gradient-to-br : Linear-gradient is set to the bottom right using this class.
- bg-gradient-to-b : Linear gradient is applied to the bottom using this class.
- bg-gradient-to-bl : This class sets the linear-gradient to bottom left.
- bg-gradient-to-l : Using this class, the linear-gradient is set to the left.
- bg-gradient-to-tl : This class sets the linear-gradient to top left.
Let’s take an example of using the “bg-none” class.
In the following code, we have applied the bg-none class to a div element, which will remove any linear gradient and give a plain background to the element:
