It looks like you’re asking about the CSS selector py-1 [&>p]:inline.
This is Tailwind CSS JIT/variant-style syntax (or a similar utility-first variant) combining a utility plus a “grouped” arbitrary selector:
- py-1 — a Tailwind utility that sets vertical padding (padding-top and padding-bottom) to the spacing scale value 1 (usually 0.25rem / 4px by default).
- [&>p]:inline — an arbitrary variant using the parent selector placeholder
&. It targets direct childelements of the element with this class and applies the
inlineutility to them. In effect:- The element with these classes gets vertical padding from
py-1. - Any direct child
(i.e.,
> p) will receivedisplay: inline;.
- The element with these classes gets vertical padding from
Equivalent plain CSS:
css
.your-element {padding-top: 0.25rem; padding-bottom: 0.25rem;}.your-element > p { display: inline;}
Notes:
- This syntax requires Tailwind JIT or support for arbitrary variants and the
&parent reference.
