 We need to add a new build command for starting a tailwind build process to our `Makefile`. For that append this to the `Makefile` in your project:
 
 ```makefile
-tailwind-dev:
-	tailwindcss -c tailwind/tailwind.config.js -i ./tailwind/app.css -o static/app.css --watch
+# Install npm packages. We have `NODE_ENV=production` so it won't install `devDependencies`
+node_modules:
+	NODE_ENV=production npm ci
+
+# We rely on the `node_modules`. So if `node_modules` directory doesn't exist, calling `make tailwind-dev` will trigger `make node_modules`.
+tailwind-dev: node_modules
+	node_modules/.bin/tailwindcss -c tailwind/tailwind.config.js -i ./tailwind/app.css -o static/app.css --watch
