Utility styles and interface composition with Tailwind CSS.

## [MicroKit: 54 React, CSS and Tailwind microinteractions to copy](<https://sebastien.rigaux.be/en/tech-watch/links/microkit-54-react-css-and-tailwind-microinteractions-to-copy>)

MicroKit collects copy-ready interactions—animated buttons, tabs, inputs and hover effects—with React or CSS and Tailwind variants. Each component is copied separately in JavaScript or TypeScript, with no package to install; 26 of the 54 have no dependencies, while 28 use lucide-react.

The code is MIT-licensed, and Tailwind variants are designed for versions 3 and 4. In the Next.js App Router, most components work in server components; those using state, refs or event handlers need « use client ».

## [Tailwind CSS: a directory of components, templates, and tools](<https://sebastien.rigaux.be/en/tech-watch/links/tailwind-css-a-directory-of-components-templates-and-tools>)

All UtilityCSS brings together free and paid Tailwind CSS resources, organized by type, use case, and technology. Its listings include copy-paste components, templates, Next.js starters, and color-management tools, several of which support Tailwind CSS v4’s OKLCH formats.

Filters help narrow the catalog to building blocks for a project, but the directory alone does not guarantee their quality or accessibility. The page advises checking those details with each resource.
