Brightness In Tailwind CSS
In this article we will take you through a brief overview of Tailwind brightness class with examples.
In Tailwind Css, the brightness class is used to adjust the brightness of an image.
The brightness of an image is adjusted using a linear multiplier which increases or decreases the brightness depending on the value.
In CSS, we achieve this by using the CSS brightness() function.
This feature was introduced in version 2.1 of Tailwind.
Syntax
<element class="filter brightness-{amount}">....</element>
