Discussion on: Why are CSS frameworks so used?

It depends a lot on the raison d'etre of the framework. With bootstrap, the simple, conforming standard of design is the main point. With Tailwind, the build process replacing difficult cascading and cleanup rules is the point (utility classes can be very useful!). Overall, abstraction from the raw instructive nature of CSS is the main reason people gravitate towards frameworks.

as I said above, I am perfectly aligned with you on Tailwind 😁 About bootstrap actually I find it outdated, especially if you want to dare a little more on design. As @darkwiiplayer wrote above everything in my imagination seem to be like this: everybootstrap.site/ 😅
