Min-Height

Utilities for setting the minimum height of an element

Class reference

Usage

Set the minimum height of an element using the min-h-0, min-h-full, or min-h-screen utilities.

<div class="h-48 ...">
  <div class="h-24 min-h-full ...">
    min-h-full
  </div>
</div>

Responsive

To control the min-height of an element at a specific breakpoint, add a {screen}: prefix to any existing min-height utility.

Customizing

Min-height scale

Customize Tailwind’s default min-height scale in the theme.minHeight section of your tailwind.config.js file.

  // tailwind.config.js
  module.exports = {
    theme: {
      minHeight: {
+       '0': '0',
+       '1/4': '25%',
+       '1/2': '50%',
+       '3/4': '75%',
+       'full': '100%',
      }
    }
  }

Learn more about customizing the default theme in the theme customization documentation.

Responsive and pseudo-class variants

By default, only responsive variants are generated for min-height utilities.

You can control which variants are generated for the min-height utilities by modifying the minHeight property in the variants section of your tailwind.config.js file.

For example, this config will also generate hover and focus variants:

  // tailwind.config.js
  module.exports = {
    variants: {
      // ...
-     minHeight: ['responsive'],
+     minHeight: ['responsive', 'hover', 'focus'],
    }
  }

Disabling

If you don’t plan to use the min-height utilities in your project, you can disable them entirely by setting the minHeight property to false in the corePlugins section of your config file:

  // tailwind.config.js
  module.exports = {
    corePlugins: {
      // ...
+     minHeight: false,
    }
  }
