Learn how to override existing utilities based on the user's screen size or other factors, such as hover states.
Targeting different viewports
You can combine responsive breakpoints like sm:to-*, md:to-*, lg:to-*, and xxl:to-* to allow targeting specific utilities in different viewports.
Targeting hover states
