The “group” class in Tailwind CSS
The “group” class in Tailwind CSS is used to create a parent-child relationship for styling purposes. When you apply the “group” class to a parent element, you can use the group-hover, group-focus, and other group-related pseudo-classes to style child elements based on the state of the parent.
In your case, removing the “group” class likely breaks the styling relationship between the parent element and its child elements (the badges). This means that any styles applied to the badges based on the parent’s state (like hover) will no longer work.
Here’s an example to illustrate:
<div className="group cursor-pointer"> <div className="badge group-hover:visible">Badge</div> </div>
In this example:
- The parent div has the “group” class.
- The child div with the “badge” class will become visible when the parent div is hovered over, thanks to the group-hover:visible class.
If you remove the “group” class from the parent div, the group-hover:visible class on the child div will no longer work, and the badge will not show up on hover.
To ensure the badges show up correctly, keep the “group” class on the parent element.
