The point he’s trying to make it’s that it’s become a default like react has. People pick things because they’re the default not because they’re the right tool for the job. Of course there’s less nuance in the article but I think there is something to be said about picking the right tool for the job and how it’s strangely not the norm in the field especially for web.
- dymk 10mo agoNo browsers ship with Tailwind or React pre-loaded. Node and npm don’t come with it loaded. It’s not a default, it’s just popular.
- csspurist 10mo agoTailwind is popular with humans, but it is the default for LLMs, which is why we see it everywhere now.
- dymk 10mo agoI just tested it, Claude and Gemini spat out a bunch of vanilla CSS. Popular != default

- queenkjuul 10mo agoWell it's clearly not the default for all LLMs then is it? Which ones IS it the default in?
