+    Getting started with Tailwind CSS using `@apply`.
+---
+
+If you're adding Tailwind CSS to your existing project or can't use atomic/utility classes straight away, the `@apply` directive might be an option.
+
+It's a way to extract components within CSS using the same classes you'd add to the element.
+
+Here's a quick example:
+
+```css
+.btn {
+  @apply py-3 px-6 bg-red text-white hover:bg-green focus:bg-green;
+}
+```
+
+It works with interaction states, such as hover and focus states, too.
+
+It's not something I use or recommend often, but it could be a good way to get started.
+
+Just don't overuse it.
