Setting up Tailwind and Biome LSP in Doom Emacs
Dec 15, 2025 - ⧖ 1 minCurrently, I'm working on a React project with Doom Emacs. Doom Emacs is amazing, with good support for Javascript and Typescript. However, it lacks support for Tailwind and Biome, which I'm using in the project.
To set-up Tailwind, I followed the instructions for lsp-tailwindcss found in Github. First, add the following in packages.el:
(package! lsp-tailwindcss :recipe (:host github :repo "merrickluo/lsp-tailwindcss"))
Then, in config.el, add this:
(use-package lsp-tailwindcss
:after lsp-mode
:init
(setq lsp-tailwindcss-add-on-mode t))
To set-up Biome, I used lsp-biome. I adapted the
above setup for Tailwind to configure lsp-biome.
(package! lsp-biome :recipe (:host github :repo "cxa/lsp-biome"))
In config.el, here is my config code:
(use-package lsp-biome
:init
(defun my/lsp-biome-active-hook ()
(setq-local apheleia-formatter '(biome)))
:config
(add-hook 'lsp-biome-active-hook #'my/lsp-biome-active-hook))
For LSP and completion to work, both Tailwind and Biome must be available in the
PATH or available in node_modules/.
