Upgrade to latest Filament and Latest tailwind 4, now in filament admin Vite error:

Unable to locate file in Vite manifest: resources/css/filament/admin/theme.css.

Does filament have its own manifest file? I did have that theme.css file but still get error and regular laravel vite manifest has no reference to this file.

Solution

@neonos, you can in fact continue to use Tailwind CSS v4 in your Laravel application when you’re only using Filament for your admin panel.
I just published a guide on how to install Tailwind CSS v3 just for Filament so you can use both Tailwind CSS version 3 and 4 side by side.

If you have any questions, I’m more than happy to help you in this thread

How to use Filament with Tailwind CSS v4

Laravel 12 ships with version 4 of Tailwind CSS, while Filament v3 only supports version 3. This guide walks you through setting up Tailwind CSS v3 alongside v4.

You cannot use tailwind v4 within filamentphp v3.

Which filament can I use it with?

Any?

So I just update to V4 because I am using latest livewire, filament is only for my admin console
