As someone who wrote CSS for 20 years and who was against using Tailwind because of “principles” I must say that Tailwind is just awesome. Every minute spent trying to make sense of the structure past you or your colleagues came up with is a minute that could be spent on something more important.

Every time someone says that Tailwind sucks, it’s like hearing the old me speak.

Same here. It’s super weird take to me now. Maybe if you’re just writing plain HTML and CSS tailwind would be worse, but assuming there’s a component system you’re going to be just fine. The cascade of CSS is such a foot gun. Localized styles work great and tailwind abstracts away hardcoded values with relative ones

I prefer writing plain CSS over Tailwind

But I get component-scoped CSS (via Vue) and use custom props to abstract away hardcoded values

Tailwind isn’t the only option for those features
