This is something im looking for now, fluid type based on container queries (im using the tailwind container queries plugin).

If you do get a build together that has this feature i can test and give feedback (i think additional classes makes sense btw)

Hey @mattpilott I didn't find time until now and I think the next two weeks I'm also busy but it's on my list. I'll make sure to ping you when I've something ready. And yes, I go the additional classes way. Maybe just an option to enable them and have it in sync with the normal ones.

Perfect, sounds good to me!

Is there a use case for using viewport units instead of container query units since they fallback to viewport units in the absence of a container? I suggest that if you decide to support both they should be the default and the viewport units should be optin or something (great project btw!)

The problem is that the Viewport is a single source and a consistent way to handle fluid type. Switching to container queries sounds super intelligent, but I'm unsure if that works well. Should the type react to each @container? That can be really confusing and unpredictable. It also needs another plugin as a dependency. For now, I'll close that Issue and keep things simple. Maybe it will return to my plate when TailwindCSS 4 is launched early next year.
