# duplicate-utility

This rule reports a utility that appears twice under the same conditions, such as
`p-4 p-4`. The second one adds nothing.

## Reported

```tsx
style("p-4 p-4");
```

> duplicate-utility: utility `p-4` is repeated under the same conditions
> 
> Example:1:12
> 
> Example:1:8: previous utility

## Fixed

```tsx
style("p-4");
```

## How to fix

Remove one of them. The automatic fix removes the repeated utility.

Two different utilities that set the same property are reported by
[conflicting-utilities](/docs/lints/conflicting-utilities) instead.

## Rule settings

| Preset | Severity |
| --- | --- |
| `recommended` | warn |
