Text Formatting: Adding Emphasis

Text formatting is crucial for emphasizing important information. Tailwind CSS Typography makes it simple to apply bold, italic, and other text styles.

Bold and Italic

  • Bold text is perfect for highlighting key points.
  • Italic text is great for emphasizing specific words.
  • Bold and Italic text can be used for extra emphasis.

Blockquotes

Blockquotes are an excellent way to highlight quotes or important information. They are styled beautifully with the Typography plugin.

“This is a blockquote. It stands out and draws attention to important information. In HTML, blockquotes are created using the <blockquote> tag. When used with the Typography plugin and daisyUI, blockquotes receive special styling that includes indentation and a different background color - making quoted text visually distinct from the rest of the content. This styling helps create clear visual hierarchy and improves readability while maintaining semantic HTML markup.”

Lists: Organizing Information

Lists are a great way to organize information in a structured manner. Tailwind CSS Typography makes it easy to create both unordered and ordered lists.

Unordered Lists

Unordered lists use bullet points to list items. They are perfect for listing items without a specific order.

  • First item
  • Second item
    • Subitem one
    • Subitem two

Ordered Lists

Ordered lists use numbers to list items. They are ideal for steps or items that need to be in a specific order.

  1. Step one
  2. Step two
    1. Substep one
    2. Substep two

Links are essential for navigation and adding interactivity to your content. Tailwind CSS Typography ensures that links are styled consistently.
