Configures PostCSS plugins for CSS processing in the Next.js application.

PostCSS is a tool for transforming CSS with JavaScript plugins.

Think of it like Babel for CSS:

Takes your CSS code as input

Runs it through configured plugins

Outputs transformed CSS

Feature	`PostCSS`	Sass/Less
Approach	Plugin-based transformation	Full preprocessor language
Flexibility	Use only what you need	All-or-nothing
Performance	Fast, minimal overhead	Slower compilation
Modern CSS	Uses actual CSS syntax	Custom syntax
Ecosystem	Huge plugin library	Built-in features only

## Plugins Used in This Project

This project uses two essential PostCSS plugins:

Tailwind CSS - Generates utility-first CSS classes

Autoprefixer - Adds vendor prefixes for browser compatibility

Your CSS → PostCSS → Tailwind Plugin → Autoprefixer → Output CSS

Exports the plugins that PostCSS will use to transform CSS.

PostCSS uses a simple object where:

Keys: Plugin names

Values: Plugin options (empty object {} for defaults)

module.exports = {
  plugins: {
    'plugin-name': { option: value },
    'another-plugin': {},
  },
}
