You state you have to make things for uni projects. Without knowing the potential restrictions around using AI for your University, I would say go on youtube and take a TailwindCSS fundamentals course and have the docs handy. Just focus on the concepts and work thru the examples. TailwindCSS is more of a set of shorthand syntax for actual CSS. If you have a plugin for your editor, it should show you the actual CSS for the Tailwind syntax.

Then pick a component library, like DaisyUI (or another component lib), that uses tailwind under the hood. Use tailwind for your layout, grid, etc. and DaisyUI for things like cards, accordions, forms, etc.

Once you understand the concepts and fundamentals then for personal projects use AI to help you generate the code.

Tailwind is one of those things you should use once you feel the pain that it solves. Start with CSS. Should be enough!
