Frameworks like tailwind have their place in prototyping, specially by people who don't know and don't want to learn CSS, like backend people that just want a quick front-end for their application, or front-end people that specialize more on the javascript side.

The problem is that tailwind specifically moves away from those use-cases by not providing finished styles for certain components like "buttons" or "grids" but instead tries to provide a direct mapping from classes to css attributes, thereby offering the advantages of neither approach.

I think even tailwind is for backend people to much the would use something like bootstrap which has already a design. With tailwind backend people would be as fast as with css.
