> when more ergonomic alternatives really do exist and are widely used As someone who got good at Bootstrap, I have to say that Tailwind sucks: it feels like you’re just doing CSS with low-granularity classes. Sure, flexibility, but to the same extent that makes CSS terrible, only now your HTML is littered with inconsistencies. CSS being nice: one sheet that renders your pages consistent and nice with minimal littering is the markup code. CSS being sucky: Disconnect between what the CSS codes do, and where they’re used, nearly impossible to clean up, and easy to end up with duplicate efforts. Bootstrap, for me, strikes the balance better: you do add some classes to the markup, and you get some smart stuff for free, like responsiveness via media queries, but if you want highly configured elements, you extend the CSS; you make a design system and stick to a few custom, high-level classes, and you don’t tack a million classes together at the markup level.
