Usage
Control the opacity of an element using the opacity-{amount}
utilities.
<div class="bg-light-blue-600 opacity-100 ..."></div>
<div class="bg-light-blue-600 opacity-75 ..."></div>
<div class="bg-light-blue-600 opacity-50 ..."></div>
<div class="bg-light-blue-600 opacity-25 ..."></div>
<div class="bg-light-blue-600 opacity-0 ..."></div>
Responsive
To control the opacity of an element at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}:
prefix to any existing opacity utility. For example, use md:opacity-50
to apply the opacity-50
utility at only medium screen sizes and above.
<div class="opacity-100 md:opacity-50 ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>

Customizing
Opacity Scale
By default, Tailwind provides five opacity utilities based on a simple numeric scale. You change, add, or remove these by editing the theme.opacity
section of your Tailwind config.
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
theme: {
opacity: {
'0': '0',
- '25': '.25',
- '50': '.5',
- '75': '.75',
+ '10': '.1',
+ '20': '.2',
+ '30': '.3',
+ '40': '.4',
+ '50': '.5',
+ '60': '.6',
+ '70': '.7',
+ '80': '.8',
+ '90': '.9',
'100': '1',
}
}
}
Variants
By default, only responsive, group-hover, focus-within, hover and focus variants are generated for opacity utilities.
You can control which variants are generated for the opacity utilities by modifying the opacity
property in the variants
section of your tailwind.config.js
file.
For example, this config will also generate active variants:
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
variants: {
extend: {
// ...
+ opacity: ['active'],
}
}
}
Disabling
If you don’t plan to use the opacity utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the opacity
property to false
in the corePlugins
section of your config file:
// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
corePlugins: {
// ...
+ opacity: false,
}
}
