Does this only happen for Tailwind? What it you try to npx a different package? The error suggests it is something to do with your npm installation rather than Tailwind specifically.

[Himanshu-Sorathiya]

where did you installed your tailwindcss package, i mean globally or just for a workbench/project, if globally then no need to use npx, just use tailwindcss init and it will work

[theosama717]

Actually i just created an empty folder name 'npm' in C:\Users\cv\AppData\Roaming and npx tailwindcss init started working

I am still facing error

[wongjn]

The init command no longer exists in v4. Consider checking the installation documentation that is most relevant to your project to integrate Tailwind v4.

The dependecies are installed successfully using this command npm install -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer, but I can't find the executable file in .bin

Just install tailwindcss 4.0 it will not create this error and much easier to install

[nidinbose]

same error i have facing how to fix it

[nidinbose]

always 4.0 creating error tailwind config is missing command init also

[arshlaanhaq]

if your using vite react you don't have to do npx tailwind init and does not have to create tailwind config file
https://tailwindcss.com/docs/installation/using-vite follow this link to install tailwindcss

[nidinbose]

Then how i add extra font styles
