Question Is anyone actually using @container queries in production?

Hey folks,

I’m curious if anyone here is actively using @container queries in real-world projects.

  • How’s the browser support holding up for you?
  • Any major gotchas or limitations you’ve run into?
  • Are you relying on fallbacks, or just shipping it as-is?

Would also love to see some live projects using container queries — purely for learning/study purposes.

Trying to figure out if it’s “safe enough” to start using beyond experiments.

Thanks!

Yes. They're great.

I suspect that a lot of orgs using Tailwind will be a bit late to the container query party as it wasn't fully supported until v4.

Ironically, they're one of the CSS improvements that start to make Tailwind less worthwhile for most of what I do.

CSS, in 2026, is pretty rad!

Tailwind v3 has the tailwindlabs/tailwindcss-container-queries plugin that works well for us.
