Quick reference

Class	Styles
transform-(<custom-property>)	transform: var(<custom-property>);
transform-[<value>]	transform: <value>;
transform-none	transform: none;
transform-gpu	transform: translateZ(0) var(--tw-rotate-x) var(--tw-rotate-y) var(--tw-rotate-z) var(--tw-skew-x) var(--tw-skew-y);
transform-cpu	transform: var(--tw-rotate-x) var(--tw-rotate-y) var(--tw-rotate-z) var(--tw-skew-x) var(--tw-skew-y);

Examples

Hardware acceleration

If your transition performs better when rendered by the GPU instead of the CPU, you can force hardware acceleration by adding the transform-gpu utility:

<div class="scale-150 transform-gpu ...">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Use the transform-cpu utility to force things back to the CPU if you need to undo this conditionally.

Removing transforms

Use the transform-none utility to remove all of the transforms on an element at once:

<div class="skew-y-3 md:transform-none ...">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

Using a custom value

Use the transform-[<value>] syntax to set the transform based on a completely custom value:

<div class="transform-[matrix(1,2,3,4,5,6)] ...">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

For CSS variables, you can also use the transform-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<div class="transform-(--my-transform) ...">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

This is just a shorthand for transform-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Responsive design

Prefix a transform utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<div class="transform-gpu md:transform-cpu ...">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>
