This class accepts lots of value in tailwind CSS in which all the properties are covered as a class form. This class is used to specify whether the text can be selected by the user or not.  In CSS, we do that by using the CSS user-select property

User Select classes

  • select-none: This class is used to deny the selection of any text.
  • select-text: This class is used to select single text.
  • select-all: This class is used to select the whole statement.
  • select-auto: This class is used to set the default behavior.

Syntax:

<element class="select-{effect}">...</element>

Example:

HTML




<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html
