 > **Good to know:** Global styles can be imported into any layout, page, or component inside the `app` directory. However, since Next.js uses React's built-in support for stylesheets to integrate with Suspense, this currently does not remove stylesheets as you navigate between routes which can lead to conflicts. We recommend using global styles for _truly_ global CSS, and [CSS Modules](#css-modules) for scoped CSS.
 
-## Tailwind CSS
-
-[Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) is a utility-first CSS framework that integrates seamlessly with Next.js.
-
-### Installing Tailwind
-
-To start using Tailwind, install the necessary Tailwind CSS packages:
-
-```bash filename="Terminal"
-npm install tailwindcss @tailwindcss/postcss postcss
-```
-
-### Configuring Tailwind
-
-Create a `postcss.config.mjs` file in the root of your project and add the `@tailwindcss/postcss` plugin to your PostCSS configuration:
-
-```js filename="postcss.config.mjs" highlight={4}
-/** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
-export default {
-  plugins: {
-    '@tailwindcss/postcss': {},
-  },
-}
-```
-
-### Using Tailwind
-
-Add the [Tailwind directives](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/functions-and-directives#directives) to your [Global Stylesheet](#global-css):
-
-```css filename="app/globals.css"
-@import 'tailwindcss';
-```
-
-Then, import the styles in the [root layout](/docs/app/api-reference/file-conventions/layout#root-layouts):
-
-```tsx filename="app/layout.tsx" switcher
-import type { Metadata } from 'next'
-// These styles apply to every route in the application
-import './globals.css'
-
-export const metadata: Metadata = {
-  title: 'Create Next App',
-  description: 'Generated by create next app',
-}
-
-export default function RootLayout({
-  children,
-}: {
-  children: React.ReactNode
-}) {
-  return (
-    <html lang="en">
-      <body>{children}</body>
-    </html>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-```jsx filename="app/layout.js" switcher
-// These styles apply to every route in the application
-import './globals.css'
-
-export const metadata = {
-  title: 'Create Next App',
-  description: 'Generated by create next app',
-}
-
-export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
-  return (
-    <html lang="en">
-      <body>{children}</body>
-    </html>
-  )
-}
-```
-
-You can then start writing Tailwind's utility classes in your application.
-
-```tsx filename="app/page.tsx" switcher
-export default function Page() {
-  return <h1 className="text-3xl font-bold underline">Hello, Next.js!</h1>
-}
-```
