You can do the exact same thing with CSS. It does not matter if the code is added to HTML or CSS. And for me, at least, this is not a spiritual debate. On the contrary, this is a very practical debate. The popularity of the tool and the signal it conveys absolutely has consequences on all of the development community. Whether I like Tailwind or not, I have to maintain projects that were done with it, I get asked about it, etc. I think that saying "it's just a tool" is kind of short-sighted. It's a paradigm. And as such, its practical implications are far reaching.

>The popularity of the tool and the signal it conveys absolutely has consequences on all of the development community I'm stuck on some rather legacy (read: fashionable 5 years ago) stack either way, but its interesting that I'm conducting an interview later today where the applicant ensured to exhibit a Next/Tailwind/TS app that runs on Vercel. I can't blame them either, I remember interviewing two summers ago and being asked if I had experience with Next straight out the gate despite it not being mentioned anywhere in the job description.
