# Using TailwindCSS in Rails
Topics: [[Ruby on Rails]], [[Tailwind CSS]]
The [`tailwind-rails`](https://github.com/rails/tailwindcss-rails) gem is a convenient way to integrate Tailwind CSS into a Rails project.
## Issues with sassc
Tailwind CSS recommends removing `sassc` from the project. That might not be feasible in the short term. In this case, a configuration change in `application.rb` can prevent issues with the use of `sassc` for compession in the asset pipeline:
```ruby
config.assets.css_compressor = nil
```
Tailwind CSS will take care of compressing its own files.
