The blur class is used to apply a blurred effect filter on the image. In CSS, we do that by using the CSS blur() Function. Tailwind CSS newly added feature blur in 2.1 version.

Blur:

  • blur-0: This class is equivalent to no blur effect as blur(0) in CSS.
  • blur-sm: This class is equivalent to small blur effect as blur(4px) in CSS.
  • blur: This class is equivalent to normal blur effect as blur(8px) in CSS.
  • blur-md: This class is equivalent to medium blur effect as blur(12px) in CSS.
  • blur-lg: This class is equivalent to large blur effect as blur(16px) in CSS.
  • blur-xl: This class is equivalent to extra large blur effect as blur(24px) in CSS.
  • blur-2xl: This class is equivalent to double extra large blur effect as blur(40px) in CSS.
  • blur-3xl: This class is equivalent to triple extra largeblur effect as blur(64px) in CSS.

Syntax:

<element class="filter blur-{amount}">..</element>
