Using negative values

To use a negative scale value, prefix the class name with a dash to convert it to a negative value.

html
<img class="-scale-50" />

Removing transforms

To remove all transforms on an element at once, use the transform-none utility. This can be useful when you want to remove transforms conditionally, such as on hover or at a particular breakpoint.

html
<div class="scale-75 translate-x-16 skew-y-16 md:transform-none"></div>

Applying conditionally

Hover, focus, and other states

Warp lets you conditionally apply utility classes in different states using variant modifiers. For example, use hover:scale-125 to only apply the scale-125 utility on hover.

html
<div class="hover:scale-125"></div>

Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries like responsive breakpoints, dark mode, prefers-reduced-motion, and more. For example, use md:scale-125 to apply the scale-125 utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

html
<div class="md:scale-125"></div>
