## Summary
These package READMEs referenced the wrong GitHub org
(tailwindcss/tailwindcss) and outdated branches (master/next) for common
project links.
Update them to point at tailwindlabs/tailwindcss on main for releases,
license, discussions, and contributing docs.
<!--
Provide a summary of the issue and the changes you're making. How does
your change solve the problem?
-->
## Test plan
Docs-only change: No test required.

used to verify the change works and include screenshots/screen
recordings of the update behavior in the browser if applicable.

## Summary
This PR adds a new `@tailwindcss/webpack` package that provides a
dedicated webpack loader for Tailwind CSS v4. This loader works with
both standard webpack and Turbopack's webpack loader compatibility
layer.
### Why a dedicated loader?
The current webpack integration uses `postcss-loader` +
`@tailwindcss/postcss`. While this works, a dedicated loader:
- **Eliminates PostCSS as a middleman** - works directly with CSS
strings (no AST conversions)
- **Simpler and more efficient** - follows the same pattern as
`@tailwindcss/vite`
- **Better for Turbopack** - gives direct control over dependency
reporting via webpack's loader API
### How it works
The loader mirrors the Vite plugin's approach:
1. Uses `compile()` from `@tailwindcss/node` to parse CSS and resolve
`@apply` directives
2. Uses `Scanner` from `@tailwindcss/oxide` to scan content files for
utility candidates
3. Reports dependencies via `this.addDependency()` and
`this.addContextDependency()`
4. Optionally optimizes output with Lightning CSS
### Usage
```javascript
// webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /.css$/i,
use: [
MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,
'css-loader',
'@tailwindcss/webpack', // No PostCSS needed!
],
},
],
},
}
```
### Options
- `base` - The base directory to scan for class candidates (defaults to
`process.cwd()`)
- `optimize` - Whether to optimize/minify the output CSS (defaults to
`true` in production)
### Files added
- `packages/@tailwindcss-webpack/` - New package
- `src/index.ts` - Main loader implementation
- `src/index.cts` - CommonJS entry point for webpack compatibility
- `package.json`, `tsconfig.json`, `tsup.config.ts`, `README.md`
- `integrations/webpack/loader.test.ts` - Integration tests
- `integrations/utils.ts` - Added webpack override for transitive
dependencies
### Test plan
- [x] Build test - verifies basic compilation
- [x] Watch test - verifies HMR when adding new Tailwind classes
- [x] `@apply` test - verifies `@apply` directives work correctly
- [x] Optimization test - verifies minification works

## Summary
quotation mark is not closed in README doc of the postcss preprocesor
## Test plan
not needed
This PR adds a bit more information when running the upgrade tool to
know what version of Tailwind CSS you're upgrading from. This will help
users and maintainers when things go wrong.
Will have another PR up soon that errors when the Tailwind CSS version
in package.json and node_modules don't match.
### Test plan
Ran this one one of our older projects and saw the version logged
correctly.
