In the next episode of The Toolbox, I'm going to show you how TailwindCSS' Just In Time compiler has changed the landscape for CSS frameworks. It's capable of building customized versions of CSS files which only output the code for the CSS you're using. It makes builds shockingly fast and the resulting CSS extremely small. We're talking just a few kilobytes instead of the usual hundredths.
I'll show you the advantages of the framework over any other Sass, Bootstrap and just about any other CSS library out there and...gasp, I'll code up a design from scratch. Come cheer me on and be ready for some Q&A.

I thought there was one more worthwhile experiment to do here, and that was taking my manual Spanish translation (see below) where I took my english script, manually translated and recorded the script in Spanish and then asked HeyGen to translate it into English.
Here's my thoughts:
1. t's a pretty good translation
2. It sounds like me, but with a sort of Spanish accent, which I don't think I necessarily always have.
3. I thought the English to Spanish translation sounded better, where this one sounds a bit weirder for me. Let me know what you think.

DevContainer.json
A configurable devcontainer.json file can help you set up your codespaces a lot easier. This wasn't so much a new feature, but an excellent demo about a little known way to configure your codespaces. CodeSpaces is huge and this allows you to preconfigure a codespace so that it can do things like:
- Modify your settings
- Preload Extensions
- Run an install script
- Run a start script
Got Issues?
It's not just me anymore, now everyone's got issues…That's GitHub Issues. This is a fantastic new way to track your projects with more of a table view as opposed to the traditional Kanban Board.
With the new table views, you get everything that you'd expect in a table that's more than just a pretty view, So for example, you can sort tables by columns, look at labels, assignments, etc.
Command Palette
The Biggest little feature announced at Github Universe has got to be the addition of the command palette.
If you blinked, you missed it, so just go into anywhere on Github and just like in VSCode, you can hit command K (control-k). Check out how quickly you can get to repos, projects, popular repos, issues. etc.
Copy Raw Button
I caught another awesome small, but big feature. Now, if you want to copy the raw version of some code block, you can simply hit the copy button and get the raw contents of the file.
Tailwinds CSS JIT CDN
Tailwind CSS is getting close to launching a version 3 of their platform, which includes support for the JIT compiler in their CDN. All you need to do is add a script tag.
Terminal Search
Last week, I showed you how to find old commands using History and that was a pretty popular tip. Someone mentioned in the comments the seach feature, so I looked it up and it's pretty awesome. Just hit control-r, then type in the comm
