A front-end developer from Mar del Plata, Argentina. Passionate about CSS, accessibility, and JS. Currently working on "just a small fix", as I've been doing for the last 15 years.
"It is noticeable that Tailwind's colors are much more soothing and are less harsh than the base CSS colors"
What's stopping you from declaring color: #1D4ED8 in your plain CSS???
Tailwind provides great pre-vetted choices, and allows you to automagically generate more in the config, which is great. But it's still an abstraction layer on top of CSS.
And one that's simply not compatible with the intersectional conditional CSS that's coming up next. Tailwind can become a huge pile of technical debt in the next two years.
Instead of fanboying over a tech we should understand what are the problems they solve and what are the tradeoffs, 'cause there's always tradeoffs.
