Problem: Alternate row colors.

Solution#

html
<ul class="divide-y">
  <li class="odd:bg-slate-50 px-4 py-3">row</li>
</ul>

Why this works#

odd:/even: variants replace nth-child CSS.

Variants#

  • Responsive: add screen prefixes to the core classes
  • Dark: pair each color utility with its dark: twin
  • Animated: add transition + a state variant for motion
