- Install and configure Tailwind CSS
- Set up Flowbite React with all required dependencies
- Configure necessary plugins
- Set up example components

If you already have a Vike project and want to add Flowbite React, you can use our initialization CLI:
npx flowbite-react@latest init
This will automatically:
- Install Flowbite React and its dependencies
- Configure Tailwind CSS to include Flowbite React plugin
- Set up necessary configurations
