Yep, Tailwind didn't invent style tokens or composable classes! After learning Foundation, Tachyons, Material UI, Chakra...I was happy to see we finally settled on Bootstrap.
Oh, we didn't? Well, time to learn a new syntax. (Was it `dark:md:hover:text-slate-400` or `hover:md:dark:text-slate-400` again?) At least Tailwind arguably has more benefits than its predecessors.
- city41 3y agoWhat was the first "official" atomic css framework? I believe it was atomic.css[0]? In this style of css, tailwind is very much a latecomer. [0]https://acss.io/ https://acss.io/
- jamesmccann 3y agoI think Tachyons struck the balance to be honest. Tailwind's "functions" and combinations seem to allow a higher level of complexity where it becomes difficult to quickly inspect a class block after some time has passed.
