[bug]: Tailwind CSS IntelliSense Doesn't work with npx shadcn@latest init

[yanivavraham1]

Hi everyone,

I've been struggling for days to get TailwindCSS v4 and shadcn/ui to work together properly in my project.

What I Tried:
Using npx shadcn@latest init

The installation seems to work, but TailwindCSS IntelliSense isn't functioning.
Tailwind v4 works fine in other Next.js projects I’ve tested.

Manual Installation (shadcn/ui Docs)

Followed the guide: https://ui.shadcn.com/docs/installation/manual
It requires editing tailwind.config.js, but Tailwind v4 doesn't use a config file anymore.

Additional Notes:
Tailwind itself works fine; it's just IntelliSense that's not functioning.
Here are my project files:
Settings.json
Tailwind logs
globals.css
package.json
I'd appreciate any help or suggestions!

Thanks,
Yaniv

same, encountered this problem too, i initially thought it was from tailwind, but after many installation and creating new projects, i narrowed it down to shadcn ui
