What is stopping from someone just turning all those utility classes into a single CSS file and completely get rid of the post-processor stuff?

Sorry, you previous post started complaining with "digital media content creator" in general, then you moved on to complain about YouTube. If your problem is with the implementation from one company and not the whole idea, fine.

Somewhat of a follow-up to yesterday's discussion about Tailwind and why I think that it doesn't provide so much value nowadays. This is what I'd like to see from Tailwind. Instead of that super complex toolchain that must

Then , yes. But nowadays CSS is a lot more powerful and has caught up. So why bother with Tailwind?

Does Ruby have an ORM/HTTP request handler/URL router in the standard library? I am not sure I follow the analogy. If all you are taking from tailwind is the utility classes, fine. This is the part that provides value. But tailw

Maybe you are making my point? If tailwind was "just utility classes", fine. But what business would it be there if they just published a bunch of CSS files with their styles? With modern CSS, what problem are they really solving

"What I don't like about Tailwind" has less to do with Tailwind itself and more about the violation of separation of content and presentation that they push so hard. > poo-pooing on someone else's open source project

A tribe assumes a strict hierarchy and mobility only though power and violence. I can agree with you about the issue of societies failing to organize themselves past a certain scale, but this is not a problem with "Capitalism".
