In the article, we will go into detail on how to use `Text Transform`.

## Text Transform
**Format**
> `text-transform-{uppercase|lowercase|capitalize|none}`

| Tailwind Class | CSS Property |
| ------ | ------ |
| `uppercase` | `text-transform: uppercase; `|
| `lowercase` | `text-transform: lowercase; `|
| `capitalize` | `text-transform: capitalize; `|
| `none` | `text-transform: none; `|

# Transforming text
The `uppercase `and `lowercase `will uppercase and lowercase text respectively, whereas `capitalize `utility will convert text to title-case. The `normal-case` utility can be used to preserve the original casing — typically to reset capitalization at different breakpoints.
## **Code**
```html
 <ul class="container mx-auto divide-y divide-gray-400 divide-dotted" style="font-family: Raleway">
  <li class="flex items-center justify-between px-4 py-2">
    <ul class=" uppercase">
    <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>
    </ul>
    <div class="text-xs font-semibold font-mono whitespace-nowrap px-2 py-1 ml-5 rounded text-white bg-pink-500 rounded-2">	text-transform: uppercase;	</div>
  </li>
  <li class="flex items-center justify-between px-4 py-2">
    <ul class="lowercase	">
    <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>
    </ul>
    <div class="text-xs font-semibold font-mono whitespace-nowrap px-2 py-1 ml-5 rounded text-white bg-pink-500 rounded-2">	text-transform: lowercase;	</div>
  </li>
    <li class="flex items-center justify-between px-4 py-2">
    <ul class=" capitalize		">
    <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>
    </ul>
    <div class="text-xs font-semibold font-mono whitespace-nowrap px-2 py-1 ml-5 rounded text-white bg-pink-500 rounded-2">	text-transform: capitalize;	</div>
  </li>
    <li class="flex items-center justify-between px-4 py-2">
    <ul class=" none	">
    <li>Now this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down</li>
    </ul>
    <div class="text-xs font-semibold font-mono whitespace-nowrap px-2 py-1 ml-5 rounded text-white bg-pink-500 rounded-2">text-transform: none;	</div>
  </li>
