How to choose
- Stay with CSS Scan if you want to read the original rules with their relative units.
- Pick PickCode if you want copy-ready Tailwind, React or Blade that renders at the original size.
- Pick SnipCSS if you need a free tool.
- Pick CSS Peeper if you want the most installed tool in the category.
Proof: the pasted code renders at the original size
Copied code is only useful if it looks like what you picked, so we measure it. The test page is a responsive card grid with a :hover rule and md: and lg: breakpoints. PickCode copies it once. We then render the original and the pasted Tailwind at three screen widths in Chrome and compare the boxes. The HTML + CSS output measured the same as Tailwind.

Measured 16 October 2026. The biggest gap was 1px of height at 390px, and the hover color matched exactly. We haven't found a published size test from any other tool in this category.
