# invalid-css-directive

This rule reports a Stillwind directive in your stylesheet that the compiler
cannot read, such as `@stillwind-slot` with an unknown slot name. The compiler
skips the directive.

## Reported

```css
@stillwind-slot utility;
```

> invalid-css-directive: `@stillwind-slot utility` names an unsupported slot
> 
> Example:1:1

## Fixed

```css
@stillwind-slot utilities;
```

## How to fix

- Check the name and the arguments of the directive. For example, the slot for
  generated utilities is `utilities`.
- If you do not need the directive, remove it. `@import "stillwind"` already
  places the slots that the default stylesheet needs.
