Yarn 2 compatible executable (npx)

See original GitHub issue

When trying to execute the npx tailwind command it fails, that’s why yarn 2 have what’s known as yarn dlx to execute a binary in a temp environment (https://yarnpkg.com/cli/dlx). However, when trying to run the tailwind binary using the new yarn dlx command, the following is prompted:

$ yarn dlx tailwind init

Internal Error: Binary not found (tailwind) for root-workspace-0b6124@workspace:.

As per docs, the yarn run command should still work. If there is no script for it in package.json it should match with a local binary. The tailwind command is deprecated though as Adam said above, so it should be: yarn run tailwindcss <command>

This can be closed I assume if the provided solutions work then @adamwathan. I will let you close it in case this was not the final solution. Didn’t have time to check it out yet.
