The "rounding" was grasping at straws:
> How round is rounded-lg?
Author: "In my vanilla CSS, I can read it in the CSS file. In Tailwind, who knows?!?"
Reality: You read it from location 2, not from location 1. The horror.
I don't even have a dog in the race. I'm past my days of handcrafting HTML and CSS. I have a few Claude Coded apps that use Tailwind, but I've not looked at any of the files (yes yes, I know. They're personal projects that run in my homelab. I don't care.)
- 9dev 2mo agoI would even say the answer is... however round "large rounded" should be. Tailwind doesn't force arbitrary opinions on these things upon you - it's a set of utilities to enforce your design system. If rounded means 6rem, so be it. There is, as you said, a single place to configure your design system (a CSS file, fwiw), which is objectively better than "well for these card-like containers we usually use 5px everywhere." Besides, I'm really wondering what sad jokes some people use to edit code that don't even offer tooltips for the styles getting applied by Tailwind classes.
