# Tailwindcss incosistant files

Hey, I wanted to ask about a bug (or a feature I don't know) that is happening when I push my files to github or download them in zip.
The problem is it's using Tailwindcss v4, but when I download its zip or push to github we have all of these files at the same time : 
styles/globals.css
tailwind.config.ts
app/globals.css
It's like having both tailwindcss v4 and v3 at the same time and they interfere with eachother 
And when I run this on my local enviroment I get various errors such as : 
 `@layer base` is used but no matching `@tailwind base` directive is present.
And then i'll have to rebase the whole project to be able to actually run and use it 
I'd appreciate if anyone could tell me what should I do or will this be fixed? Is this a known issue?

I had a similar problem. I'd recommend to create a new Next.js project with tailwind and copy over the code without the configs, then it should be consistent.

Well my project is super messed up because of this, I mean when you move your files with mismatched css, the whole globals.css messes up and I just can't merge them correctly (half of the styles are in styles/globals.css, half of them are in app/globals.css and again half of them are in tailwind config) 
I just don't know what to do
