Tailwind CSS Ring Width

The ring-width utility class in Tailwind CSS sets the thickness of the ring around an element when you apply the ring-* utility. It allows you to control the width of the ring around an element.

Syntax

The ring-width utility class can be used in the following format:

<div class="ring-width-{size}"></div>

Here, {size} is the width of the ring you want to apply to the element, and it can be one of the following values:

• 0: sets the width of the ring to 0.
• 1: sets the width of the ring to 1px.
• 2: sets the width of the ring to 2px.
• 4: sets the width of the ring to 4px.
• 8: sets the width of the ring to 8px.
• inset: sets the width of the ring to be the same as the element's padding.

Example

<button class="p-4 bg-gray-900 text-white rounded-full ring-2 ring-gray-300 ring-width-4">Click me</button>

In this example, we have a button element with a gray background color, white text, and a 4-pixel wide gray ring around it.
