That is the point: which kind of projects?

You all fight, but nobody says what exactly they develop. A webpage and Tailwind is absolutely fun. An app with reusable complex components, Tailwind is a pain. Themes, dynamic tailwind is a pain, static, tailwind is ok.

There are endless possibilities. The problem is, that some people think you can use Tailwind for everything and then they made simple things unnecessary complicated.



I disagree 100% with that. I much prefer using Tailwind for complex apps with reusable components. Because then you don't have a lot of repetition, redundancy is as much as BEM.

For static webpages (unless it is assembled by a static blog engine or something), I don't particularly enjoy it, because of the repetition.

With components+Tailwind you have as much duplication as you'd have with pure BEM.

All personal experience and opinion, of course.


I like tailwind but I only ever used it in a JSX context, if I had to author plain html I would likely never choose it.


Not my experience. We built a full rather complex and feature full application using Tailwind. How? Reusable components (we use Vue, but that’s just one option).

I remember this being endorsed approached by Tailwind creator.

No complaints.
