A bit out of topic: the OP mentions using Tailwind.

I've peeked into the dev tools to see how Tailwind is used there. And since I'm advocating against using Tailwind, this page seems to be a perfect example what problems it brings to the table. Plenty of elements had to use custom classes to randomly overwrite some Tailwind classes here and there (like .display-3 and .main-headline) or completely avoiding Tailwind, like for the #recovered-revenue-main.

It just shows that Tailwind did not solve issues it was claiming to solve, at least in this project. And I guess it must be a pain to maintain this project since PR reviewer and other coworkers now have to know Tailwind by heart to figure out quickly what really got overwritten and why.
