Okay, since lots of information is missing, I'll try to help with some standard steps.

If you're using react-native-rn, and can't get to generate tailwind.json, look here

First, check out your package.json or the command you're running.

The command should look like this

tailwind --input path/to/your/css/file.css --output path/to/file/tailwind/will /generte.css

Basically same answer as Satishkumar sahu, just explained in a different way.

if you have followed everything according to the docs, one thing you can do is set your style.css as input file and create an another css file as your output file and use that file in your .html, to do this, you can run the following command

npx tailwindcss -i src/styles.css --output src/styles/tailwind.css --watch

here it will create a output file named tailwind.css in the above mentioned directory and you can now inclued src/styles/tailwind.css in your .html file.
