🌐 Web query:
Does Tailwind CSS v4 default spacing scale include w-130, w-105, h-130, and h-105 as canonical preset classes, or are these still considered arbitrary values?
💡 Result:
In Tailwind CSS v4, classes such as w-105, w-130, h-105, and h-130 are not part of a predefined, "canonical" list of hardcoded preset classes [1][2]. Instead, Tailwind v4 utilizes a dynamic, generative system for spacing-based utilities [2][3]. In this system, utility classes like w-* and h-* are derived from a single --spacing theme variable (which defaults to 0.25rem or 4px) [2][3]. Because the engine calculates the values mathematically by multiplying this unit by the number provided in the class name, virtually any whole or decimal number can be used dynamically [2][3]. Consequently, while these classes will function as expected in your project, they are effectively "arbitrary" in the sense that they are generated on-demand by the compiler rather than being restricted to a fixed set of curated, canonical presets [2][3]. While the Tailwind CLI and IntelliSense may provide suggestions for a standard range (typically up to *-96) to encourage design consistency, using a value like w-130 is a valid, supported part of the v4 architecture and does not require square-bracket arbitrary value syntax [2][4][3].

Clarify PR “canonical” wording for w-130/h-130/w-105/h-105
These classes are valid in Tailwind v4 without bracket arbitrary syntax because w-*/h-* utilities are generated dynamically, but they aren’t part of a fixed predefined “canonical preset” spacing list—so PR wording about IntelliSense suggesting canonical presets is misleading.

Does Tailwind CSS v4 support z-1 utility class or only the default z-index scale (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50)?💡 Result:
Tailwind CSS v4 does not include z-1 as a default utility class [1][2]. Instead, Tailwind v4 handles z-index utilities dynamically, allowing you to use arbitrary values directly in your HTML using square bracket syntax [1][3]. The default built-in z-index scale remains consistent with previous versions (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50) [1][2]. If you need a z-index of 1, you can use the arbitrary value syntax:
...Because Tailwind v4 processes these utilities dynamically, you do not need to pre-define them in your configuration to use them [3]. If you frequently require a specific value like z-1 and prefer not to use arbitrary syntax in your HTML, you can define a custom utility class in your CSS using the@utilitydirective [3]:@utilityz-1 { z-index: 1; }Citations:

Why
Since adopting Tailwind v4 the project's default spacing scale now includes
built-in equivalents for many arbitrary values previously required. The VS Code
Tailwind CSS IntelliSense extension (
suggestCanonicalClasses) flags everyoccurrence, surfacing noise in every PR that touches these files. This sweeps
them up app-wide in one dedicated pass.
What changed
Every replacement is a pure alias — compiled CSS output is bit-for-bit identical.
w-[160px]andw-40both emitwidth: 10rem. No visual change.Conversions applied:
w-[Npx]/h-[Npx]/min-w-[Npx]/max-w-[Npx]/max-h-[Npx]/min-h-[Npx]→ canonical scale class (where N÷4 is an integer)z-[N]→z-Nflex-shrink-0→shrink-0(Tailwind v4 shorthand)49 replacements across 29 files.
Out of scope (intentionally kept as arbitrary)
min-w-[70px],min-w-[130px],min-w-[250px],max-w-[250px],rounded-[4px]and all
calc(...), viewport-unit, and hex-color values — no canonical equivalent exists.
