Max-Width and Min-Width
Constrain the maximum and minimum widths of widgets using the max-w-* and min-w-* utilities. Supports pixel-based, percentage-based, and viewport-relative values.

WContainer(
className: 'max-w-[300] bg-purple-500 dark:bg-purple-700',
child: WText('Max width: 300px'),
)
WContainer(
className: 'min-w-[100] bg-orange-500 dark:bg-orange-700',
child: WText('Min width: 100px'),
)
Basic Usage
Use max-w-* to prevent a widget from growing beyond a certain width. Use min-w-* to ensure it never shrinks below a minimum. Both accept the same value forms as the w-* utilities.
WContainer(
className: 'max-w-10 bg-purple-500 dark:bg-purple-700',
child: WText('Max width: 40px'), // 10 * 4 (Pixel Factor)
)
WContainer(
className: 'min-w-12 bg-yellow-500 dark:bg-yellow-700',
child: WText('Min width: 48px'), // 12 * 4 (Pixel Factor)
)
Quick Reference
Max-Width
| Class | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
max-w-{value} |
Maximum width in pixels (scaled by Pixel Factor) | max-w-20 |
max-w-[{value}] |
Arbitrary maximum width in pixels | max-w-[300] |
max-w-full |
100% of the parent's width | max-w-full |
max-w-screen |
100% of the viewport width | max-w-screen |
max-w-{x}/{y} |
Percentage of the parent's width | max-w-1/2 |
max-w-[{value}vw] |
Percentage of the viewport width | max-w-[80vw] |
Min-Width
| Class | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
min-w-{value} |
Minimum width in pixels (scaled by Pixel Factor) | min-w-20 |
min-w-[{value}] |
Arbitrary minimum width in pixels | min-w-[300] |
min-w-full |
100% of the parent's width | min-w-full |
min-w-screen |
100% of the viewport width | min-w-screen |
min-w-{x}/{y} |
Percentage of the parent's width | min-w-1/2 |
min-w-[{value}vw] |
Percentage of the viewport width | min-w-[80vw] |
How Values Are Calculated
Predefined Sizes
Values are multiplied by the Pixel Factor.
- Example:
max-w-20→ 20 × 4 (Pixel Factor) = 80px. - Example:
min-w-12→ 12 × 4 (Pixel Factor) = 48px.
Special Keywords
| Value | Result |
|---|---|
full |
double.infinity (100% of parent) |
screen |
Viewport width via MediaQuery |
Fraction Syntax
Use max-w-x/y or min-w-x/y to express a fraction of the parent width.
- Example:
max-w-3/4→ 75% of the parent's width.
Viewport Width
Append vw inside brackets for a percentage of the viewport.
- Example:
max-w-[80vw]→ 80% of the viewport width.
Arbitrary Values
Use bracket notation for an exact pixel value, bypassing the Pixel Factor.
WContainer(
className: 'max-w-[600] min-w-[200] bg-gray-200 dark:bg-gray-700',
child: WText('Width stays between 200px and 600px.'),
)
Responsive Design
Combine max/min width with breakpoint prefixes for responsive constraints.
WContainer(
className: 'max-w-full md:max-w-[600] lg:max-w-[800] bg-blue-500 dark:bg-blue-700',
child: WText('Responsive max-width.'),
)
Available breakpoints: sm, md, lg, xl, 2xl.
