By default, only responsive variants are generated for word break utilities.
You can control which variants are generated for the word break utilities by modifying the wordBreak
property in the variants
section of your tailwind.config.js
file.
For example, this config will also generate hover and focus variants:
module.exports = {
variants: {
- wordBreak: ['responsive'],
+ wordBreak: ['responsive', 'hover', 'focus'],
}
Disabling
If you don’t plan to use the word break utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the wordBreak
property to false
in the corePlugins
section of your config file:
