Their marketing is good, they do a primo job at conveying the message in a nice looking way, but the end result is still HTML littered with hundreds classes, that gets hard to maintain and impossible to refactor.
- kevmo314 6y agoI'm a big fan of Tailwind because I've realized that HTML isn't really maintained and refactored anyways: it's either composed or rewritten. Rarely do refactors happen in the same way as most programming languages.
- Wolfr_ 6y agoDepends on the kind of work, for me, in the kind of long-running web software I make HTML is actually maintained or refactored.
- CGamesPlay 6y agoFor this use case, the "tailwind solution" is to use components, either Angular, React, or whatever, but to pull those "hundreds of classes" into reusable chunks that could be refactored.

- Bishonen88 6y agoI found the promotional video for v2.0 somewhat silly. Epic music taken almost from some Nolan trailer playing in the background for things like "New color palette", "New shades of Gray". Edit: here's a stark contrast of another promotional video for some tool doing a better job (IMO): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaNsjhUdh3BxFL6tzyuhc9g https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaNsjhUdh3BxFL6tzyuhc9g
- jherdman 6y agoThat's literally the point: it's silly.
- adamwathan 6y agoFramework author here, yep the whole point of the trailer is to be absolutely ridiculous. The music was custom scored for us by the best man at my wedding, and we had a professional opera singer record all of the chants at the end which are literally "utility first" in Latin. It's completely outrageous and absurd :) It's the Old Spice commercial of launch videos.
