Build a Random Number Generator in Tailwind CSS

Last Updated : 05 Mar, 2024

A Random Number Generator (RNG) is a tool that generates a random number within a specified range. By combining Tailwind CSS's utility classes with JavaScript, you can create a simple and visually appealing RNG that can be easily integrated into any web application.

Approach:

Create an HTML file and include the necessary Tailwind CSS CDN link in the head section. Define the main container for the app using Tailwind CSS classes to style it.
Inside the main container, create two input fields for the user to enter the minimum and maximum values for the random number generation. Add two buttons: one for generating the random number and another for clearing the input fields.
Attach event listeners to the generate and clear buttons using JavaScript.
When the generate button is clicked, get the values from the input fields, parse them as integers, and generate a random number within the specified range. Display the random number in the result div. If the input is invalid (e.g., non-numeric values), display an error message.
When the clear button is clicked, clear the input fields and the result display.
