+### Using Tailwind CSS Mode in CSS Files (Preview)
+
+Zed includes support for the Tailwind CSS language mode, which provides full CSS IntelliSense support even when using Tailwind-specific at-rules like `@apply`, `@layer`, and `@theme`.
+To use the Tailwind CSS language mode for CSS files, add the following to `languages` section of your `settings.json`:
+
+```json [settings]
+{
+ "languages": {
+ "CSS": {
+ "language_servers": [
+ "tailwindcss-intellisense-css",
+ "!vscode-css-language-server",
+ "..."
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+The `tailwindcss-intellisense-css` language server serves as an alternative to the default CSS language server, maintaining all standard CSS IntelliSense features while adding support for Tailwind-specific syntax.
