Thanks for the feedback. I went back and forth on the both of those.

In the second case, I decided to match the way the Tailwind documentation does patterns, it keeps the dashes outside the braces.

The first case, I also thought I was matching the Tailwind documentation, but either they changed the formatting there, or I’m having a memory lapse, because they are not currently consistently using the leading dot to define classes, though they still use it in some places.
