Tailwind certainly has some advantages and nice features, but the length of the class string when you need something common but complex like a custom styled checkbox including focus states, various hovers, media-queries, etc gets absurd and far more difficult to read, debug, and update. I think one of the primary reasons Tailwind is so popular is how poorly React deals with classes and styles. In other frameworks/libraries like Vue/Svelte CSS is treated as a first-class citizen with a lot of nice quality-of-life improvements that React teams are forced to implement using awful CSS-in-JS solutions or with Tailwind. You get single-file-components, scoped styles, etc, all out of the box and without having to learn a new abstraction. If the dev world wasn't a React monoculture (and more devs appreciated CSS deeply) I think you would see significantly less interest in Tailwind.
