Thanks for the recommendation. I think I can live with this. I was already writing custom utility classes and the stylesheet to go with it. If I rewrite my classes for TWCSS it should translate easily. The CSS gotchas and handwritten stylesheet were holding me back a lot.

I originally went this route because I saw potential in utility CSS: it pairs well with components, scales well virtually and IRL, reduces working docs, all without bloat.

We're taking DEV in a Tailwind-esc direction. Seems like everyone in this thread feels that way πŸ˜„

I'm curious: How do you keep your CSS maintainable with Tailwind in large-scale apps and websites? I can see it being useful for iterating very rapidly on small projects, but a sea of classes in HTML is going to be very difficult to look at, let alone debug, isn't it?
