        "./src/components/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
        "./src/app/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,mdx}",
        contentPath(import.meta.url, 'react')
    ],
    theme: {
        extend: {},
    },
    plugins: [
        skeleton({
            // NOTE: each theme included will be added to your CSS bundle
            themes: [ themes.cerberus, themes.rose ]
        })
    ]
