Tailwind Is an Anti-Pattern (freedium.cfd)

This article doesn't consider reusing similar components. For example, you want to use the purple button with a shitton of classes at multiple places. You don't always define the classes. Design a component (I know react, so using it's terminology), and use that. It'll be much easier to read/write and maintain that single component.

And article also says tailwind is the safest way to remain a beginner in CSS. I agree with this. But again, tailwind is not for someone who doesn't know CSS. It's not a magic UI framework. You have to know CSS. Tailwind is just a way of writing CSS without stylesheets.


CSS is great now, tailwind is an unnecessary overhead.
