I'm trying to set up my rails project with tailwind, but none of the actual tailwind changes are showing up in the browser. In devtools the class is displayed, but it doesn't make any change in the browser (the background is not red). RoR version is 7.0.1, Tailwindcss is 3.0.13, and Ruby is 2.7.2. I set it up following https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsNtLiph87Y and here is my tailwind.config:
module.exports = {
content: [
'./app/views/**/*.html.erb',
'./app/helpers/**/*.rb',
'./app/javascript/**/*.js'
],
mode: 'jit',
}
here is my Gemfile:
