CSS Shadows to Tailwind
Common elevations map to shadow / shadow-lg. Unique shadows become arbitrary shadow utilities.
Visual compare
Shadow tokens are approximate. If brand elevation is strict, keep an arbitrary shadow or a CSS custom property.
Multiple shadows
Layered box-shadow lists often need arbitrary values. Prefer one intentional arbitrary shadow over three wrong tokens stacked hopefully.
Focus rings vs shadows
Do not replace focus outlines with decorative shadows. Accessibility and elevation are different jobs.
Try it
.example { display: flex; gap: 1rem; padding: 1rem; }Trust note: verify output visually. The converter is a draft helper for developers.
