Here’s a question. Does anyone seriously uses tailwind in real projects? It is indeed just inline styling why would you do that? And about claw, do you think it’s more than just hype?

I use it all the time and have worked in several startups which do. For me personally, inline styling is the point. I can open up any tailwind project and see exactly how that element is styled without cmd + clicking around through layers of CSS.

Obviously it’s all personal taste, but in my mind it feels like the successor to bootstrap in a lot of ways.

A lot of companies use tailwind. Here's an extract from https://claude.ai (the chat interface after logging in):

    <main class="mx-auto mt-4 w-full flex-1 px-4 md:px-8 lg:mt-6 max-w-7xl h-full !mt-0 flex flex-col items-center gap-8 md:px-14 3xl:px-20 pt-[10vh] md:pt-[20vh] max-sm:!px-1 relative">
    <div class="mx-auto flex w-full flex-col items-center gap-7 max-md:pt-4 max-w-2xl">
    <div class="ml-0.5 inline-flex items-center gap-1.5 rounded-lg h-8 px-2.5 text-center font-small sm:font-base bg-bg-300 text-text-500 select-none">

I see. But it looks horrible, no? I mean I get that it’s a purely taste issue.
