+# Kylie Marilyn Website
+
+That is the static website for Miss Kylie Marilyn. It is powered by pure HTML and Tailwind CSS. The index is a PHP file so that I can have a dynamic year in the copyright.
+
+## Installation
+
+Do the normal `npm install` to install dependencies. See the Tailwind CSS documentation for details.
+
+### Run dev _watch_
+
+
+```shell
+npx tailwindcss \
+    -i ./src/css/styles.css \
+    -o public/build/styles.css \
+    --jit \
+    --purge="./public/**/*.php" \
+    --watch
+````
+
+### Run production build
+
+```shell
+NODE_ENV=production \
+    npx tailwindcss \
+    -i ./src/css/styles.css \
+    -o public/build/styles.css \
+    --jit \
+    --purge="./public/**/*.php" \
+    --minify
+```
