+Alpha channels in colors are no longer stripped. If you want the alpha channels stripped still, either do so manually or change the classes you are using to use the [opacity modifier syntax](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/upgrade-guide#new-opacity-modifier-syntax) with the opacity set to `100` e.g. from `bg-primary` to `bg-primary/100`.

+The plugin will no longer add the [prefix](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/plugins#prefix-and-important-1) to any theme or default classes because they are base styles (more details [here](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/plugins#adding-base-styles)).

 > As you can see, the way we need to parse colors into individual channels like this makes it hard to tell what color is being represented. It doesn't work well with tooling like the vscode [Color Highlight](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=naumovs.color-highlight) extension. This was a motivating factor in creating this plugin. `primary: '#fff' is easier to read and works better with tooling.

-When [theming color values in tailwindcss](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/customizing-colors#using-css-variables), you cannot naively theme them because they depend on opacity custom properties. [This video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAtaT8BZEAo) goes further into why.
