Congrats, you now know CSS! It sounds like I'm joking but honestly, Tailwind is essentially composable shorthand for CSS with a design system applied. If you grok Tailwind, you understand the concepts of CSS, you just might not know the full names for all the properties and values.
- domano 5y agoYes, but when i try to apply this knowledge i fail every time. I do unterstand the basic ideas behind CSS, but is just cant apply it. Tailwind allowed me to apply it. If i could, i would prefer to write CSS! After 10 years i have given up though.
- dmitriid 5y agoThat's the thing about Tailwind. It's (almost) the right abstraction. Personal anecdote, I understood how flexbox works only after using Tailwind for a personal project.
