Meh to the article.
Bootstrap and tailwind aren't really trying to do the same thing.
e.g.,...
One client wanted a dashboard for certain data... we chose a bootstrap template they liked and... we were done with many aspects of the visual design. The template looked good, was appropriate for the purpose, the client was happy, and development proceeded to the parts of the site they really needed to control.
Another client wanted a custom design for an outward facing site. Designers and the customer worked together, iterated a bunch, and came up with a design they all loved... I implemented it with tailwind... straightforward for me and the client and designers loved it because it looked just like the design they worked so hard on.
It would have been possible to use tailwind on the first site, but it would have taken longer, for no benefit to the client or project.
It would have been possible to use bootstrap on the second site, but it would have taken longer (to customize) and/or would look more like bootstrap and less like the custom design in places where it just wasn't worth the effort to customize it.
