Not sure why, but I thought Tachyons CSS was kind of the first to take this approach, but Tailwind certainly caught on much faster event though they came on the scene over a year after Tachyons:

Tailwind has amassed 21.8k stars on GitHub and it is being used by 38,749 repositories and has over a 100 contributors, it also has 73,791 weekly downloads on NPM.

Tachyons has 9.7k stars on GitHub, has 64 contributors, and has 26,384 weekly downloads on NPM.

what about bootstrap or whatever came even before that? all these libaries do is adding more to that fundamental idea, nothing is conceptually new here.

I used Tachyons for one of my first freelance sites a few years back. Felt ahead of it’s time. I do prefer the default look of Tailwind now though.
