When more tools catch up with the latest postcss dependency tracking, then we probably don't even need this anymore. However, it is a good practice to put (global) caches in ~/.cache and (global) configs in ~/.config Fixes: #4569

Hey! Thank you for your suggestion! There is a probably going to be a time in the future where we don't even need this folder anymore, now that tools are shipping with the latest postcss version that supports better dependency tracking. That said, I opened a pr (#4650) that changes the default folder for this. Thanks! |

* use `~/.cache/tailwindcss` as default touch dir When more tools catch up with the latest postcss dependency tracking, then we probably don't even need this anymore. However, it is a good practice to put (global) caches in ~/.cache and (global) configs in ~/.config Fixes: #4569 * change test to verify @tailwind base slightly Because of some changes in tailwind itself, the base selector contains a ton of new --tw-* custom properties. Keeping this up to date might be a bit of an annoying challenge. So instead we now check for the selector to be present. * add `tmp` package * use a (simple) temporary file, instead of a full cache dir
