Our inputs look really gross. We could write our own components (basically reusable CSS classes, what a novel idea) but we're just going to use the good ones that Tailwind provides out of the box.
Run npm install -D @tailwindcss/forms@0.2.1
.
Put this into your tailwind.config.js
// replace plugins
plugins: [require("@tailwindcss/forms")],
This will apply a bunch of default styles for all of our basic form elements. Tailwind has a pretty great plugin ecosystem. One of my favorites is the aspect-ratio one. CSS doesn't currently have a backwards compatible way of doing aspect ratios (e.g. keep this image in a square ratio) and this plugin makes a primitive that you can use like that. Super cool.
Notice our location input still looks bad. With this plugin they (probably wisely) require you to add type="text"
to the the input so they can have a good selector for it. So please go add that now to your text input.
Let's finish making SearchParams looks nice.
To each of the selects and inputs, add className="w-60"
so they have a nice uniform width.
To the breed selector, we want it to be grayed out when it's not available to use. However the PostCSS 7 version of Tailwind doesn't work with the disabled:<style>
class (new versions do.) So add this to your tailwind.config.js config.
//replace variants
variants: {
opacity: ({ after }) => after(["disabled"]),
},
This will allow our specific use case. Again, don't dig too much into this because once Parcel 2 lands or you whenever you're using PostCSS 8 this isn't a big deal.
Now add className="w-60 disabled:opacity-50"
to the breed <select>
.
Replace the button with:
<button
className="rounded px-6 py-2 color text-white hover:opacity-50 border-none"
style={{ backgroundColor: theme }}
>
Submit
</button>
Nothing surprising there.
