Add better messages around using Flowbite in monorepos
- [x] I have searched the Issues to see if this bug has already been reported
- [x] I have tested the latest version
Summary
When a CRA project using Flowbite is used in a monorepo setup e.g. NPM workspaces, the flowbite-react and flowbite packages get hoisted to the top-level node_modules folder. While the build (via npm run build), works as expected, the resultant CSS artifacts don't contain all the CSS.
This is documented in the library but requires a deep understanding of the CRA configuration to figure this out.
I suggest that better warnings be emitted or a exception be thrown if the required directory is missing.

Context
I was trying to use React + Flowbite + Tailwind (using CRA) in a package which is a part of a NPM monorepo
That makes sense, I agree with ur suggestion.
I guess a section in the guides/create-react-app would also make sense here.
