Tailwind for me
Why Tailwind? What do you like about it? :)
The thing that did it for me was the simplicity to understand what's every class usage, since it is usually only for 1 CSS attribute, not multiple packed as one like Bootstrap. Therefore it give us freedom to mix & match almost every Tailwind class available.
If you want a component library and also the easy-to-customize benefit of Tailwind, you can use Tailwind UI, daisyui or tailwindcomponents.com. You get the best of both worlds.
This whole "utility-first" approach is really nice to work with. It doesn't need to be the thing we now use for everything, but it is definitely a step change if you're bought in.
From their home page:
These ideas really do work effectively in my opinion. Tailwind is truly the first framework I've liked at all, in many ways. I see value in Bootstrap for a lot of projects, but the scalable productivity of the utility-first approach is really a big deal, IMO.
Tailwinds css has lots of components. I was using this framework on my project about 1 years. It's good.
Bootstrap is ultimate
Yes, Bootstrap βΊοΈ
Some advantages that I like about BS:
So far in the conversation I've seen:
I'm in the simple vanilla CSS camp.
A vote against OOCSS/BEM. (Not sure what that is.)
No votes for Bulma.
From lack of mention of SASS, I take it that's not popular anymore...?
OOCSS and BEM are naming conventions for your components rather than actual frameworks.
Tailwind has become the most popular in my opinion. Bootstrap is pretty good too it was one of the first that I learned.

I try not to use them. I write simple css to maintain the purity and control of the code, including for fairly large projects. I used to study almost all the novelties in this field, and learning means doing something on them. But time passed, I was tired, to be honest. I think I can afford it after more than 20 years of practice. Though... in the last project used the Bootstrap icons. :)
I love doing css by hand, where you have the power over everything, I am looking into learning scss to simplify complex css; But i am also planning on using tailwind at some point with its utility class approach, the only criticism is its long class list that will form.
I am planning on making tool where you write your tailwind classes in a css file and it will be compiled to straight css, like scss for tailwind.
Thats already a tailwind feature you can do that today look at @apply
oh never knew that, but the fun of engineering some thing your self that's already on the market is quite fun
Bootstrap, the ease and speed it provides while creating frontend is incomparable (for me atleast), though it can sometimes a bit kinda Glitchy to work wuth(custom stuff) but everything has its flaws. 2nd is Sakura css, a no class css framework, just use html and get a good layout, perfect for prototyping a idea quickly.
Loving TailwindCSS at the moment. π₯°
I picked up the utility-first CSS itch with Bootstrap 4, and after reading "In Defense of Utility-First CSS" and switching to TailwindCSS, I don't think I could ever go back to OOCSS/BEM.
I really enjoy interrogating web designs and identifying repeating patterns for abstraction (whether into components or grouped classes), and TailwindCSS makes that a breeze.
I also really like that while TailwindCSS provides you with the entire kitchen sink, your production CSS is tiny as all of your unused styles are automatically purged.
Artis is a low-level and functional virtual CSS library with no CSS codes. More than 80 Utilities. Infinite Configurations. (artisjs.netlify.app) #virtualcss #virtualdom #javascript #cssinjs #csslibrary
fwiw. as with anything -- depends on the requirement.
I've looked at a lot.
Once you work with them you realize more and more they are bloatware.
Tailwind takes the approach, give you everything you could possibly need upfront - then take away what you're not using.
Which is good but what if you want to reverse engineer a large project a year later and scale it. not sure. but it's good for UI or even mobile etc.
Bootstrap is seen it's day but it still has a place. Also too much. but it's a good pick up and go universal starting point. It's almost as if Bootstrap should follow the take away what you don't use approach like Tailwind.
if it's too much code for something simple then sometimes the best thing is to just write your own. codepen.io/simonayriss/pen/qBVYVgL or find something minimal and go from there.
Bootstrap is good for mineπ. And you?
Since I learned about Tailwind I want to use it in every project π
Same!
Definitely Tailwind for me! I really like how easy it is to make media queries, and (for me) itβs easier to work with than normal CSS since I donβt have to jump between files. (Yes, sure, you could have the CSS in your HTML in a style tag, but still, with tailwind all the properties are IN the actual element.)
EDIT: Seems like Iβm not the only one with that opinion here! Most people here seem to love Tailwind.
May depend of the frontend lib and context for me!
React => Chakra or Mui
Vuejs => ElementUI
Mobile => ionic
Stylify stylify.dev/ β€οΈ
Chakra UI is nice
I will add Amigo CSS on the list. amigocss.com/
TailwindCSS, but its not really a framework tbh. It has no components built-in, you need to add them.
Depends on the project. There is no an ultimate solution. Developers job is to find the right solution based on the project you are working on. This is technology.
It's surely Tailwind
Tailwind/Windi I love being able to do quick prototype and change styles easily.
Tailwind easy quick and simple
Tailwind
tailwind no doubt
Is to use a framework in general recommended or can we just use CSS? If you have a favourite one, please explain why!
For me it's tailwind because once you get used to the naming conventions it makes it very intuitive to design components / pages quickly.
Beercss: Material Design in 12kB minzipped CSS, and with lots of features. Less than 7kB in my app after PurgeCSS.
Atomic CSS acss.io for me. I initially hated it but later on I understood how it solves many problems we face when there are multiple developers working on a project.
Tailwind get my vote simplicity at its best.
Material UI with React is good too,
but i usually like both bootstrap and tailwind
Tailwind
None!
Tailwind css for me. Reasons: Fast development, good experience, small size & plenty of customization options.
Bootstrap is a close second.
If I was forced to use a CSS framework then I'll pick Tailwind. But not using any CSS frameworks is always my first choice.
Vianilla CSS only.
bootstrap is my best
Bootstrap anytime....
Tailwind for me
tailwindcss is my weapon of choice ;)
Materialize, bootstrap and bulma are simples! But, Tailwind is more flexible.
Someone please mention Semantic UI!!
Tailwind CSS
Hi, i use Zurb Foundation 6, Bootstrap 4/5 most offen.
