One day I was asked to take on a web development assignment. The aim was to make the website delivered by a guy look more like the figma model. The guy had used tailwind. That's when I realized that tailwind is great for rapid prototyping, but if you really want something precise, nothing beats raw css. Needless to say, the mission was hell.

Ideally design would be using a design system - you can alter all the spacing utilities in Tailwind to match the design spacing if they don't go by the multiples of 4 that Tailwind does.

If you're getting Figmas with inconsistent padding / margins everywhere, no CSS framework is going to save you.
