Examples

Basic example

Use utilities like hue-rotate-90 and hue-rotate-180 to rotate the hue of an element by degrees:

hue-rotate-15

hue-rotate-90

hue-rotate-180

hue-rotate-270

<img class="hue-rotate-15" src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="hue-rotate-90" src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="hue-rotate-180" src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="hue-rotate-270" src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

Using negative values

Use utilities like -hue-rotate-15 and -hue-rotate-45 to set a negative hue rotate value:

-hue-rotate-15

-hue-rotate-45

-hue-rotate-90

<img class="-hue-rotate-15" src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="-hue-rotate-45" src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="-hue-rotate-90" src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

Using a custom value

Use the hue-rotate-[<value>] syntax to set the hue rotation based on a completely custom value:

<img class="hue-rotate-[3.142rad] ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

For CSS variables, you can also use the hue-rotate-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<img class="hue-rotate-(--my-hue-rotate) ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

This is just a shorthand for hue-rotate-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Responsive design

Prefix a filter: hue-rotate() utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<img class="hue-rotate-60 md:hue-rotate-0 ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

Learn more about using variants in the variants documentation.
