Examples

Basic example

Use utilities like outline-solid and outline-dashed to control an element's outline style:

<button class="outline-2 outline-offset-2 outline-indigo-500 outline-solid">Button A</button>
<button class="outline-2 outline-offset-2 outline-indigo-500 outline-dashed">Button B</button>
<button class="outline-2 outline-offset-2 outline-indigo-500 outline-dotted">Button C</button>
<button class="outline-3 outline-offset-2 outline-indigo-500 outline-double">Button D</button>

Hiding an outline

Use the outline-hidden utility to hide an outline while maintaining its space:

<input class="focus:outline-hidden" type="text" />

Removing outlines

Use the outline-none utility to remove an existing outline from an element:

<textarea class="outline-none" placeholder="Leave a comment..."></textarea>

Responsive design

Prefix an outline-style utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<button class="outline md:outline-dashed">
  <!-- ... -->
</button>
