I was concerned I might've been too critical of Tailwind users. After all, I had never used it and so many people swear by it.
Well, now I've used it... And I **hate** Tailwind.
I just made a typical 4-page blog site with filler text and no actual functionality. It's nothing special. This is the project that I usually use when I'm learning something new.
You don't need to write CSS if you're using Tailwind, but you do need a good understanding of CSS to use the utility classes effectively.
For example, how would someone make sense of `grid gap-4 px-4 grid-cols-[min-content_auto_min-content] grid-rows-[4rem_max-content_max-content_3rem]` without a pretty good understanding of CSS grid?
It seems to me that this would be even more difficult for newer devs who haven't spent years learning CSS.
I dunno. I gotta be wrong because I've seen people with serious dev skills say they wouldn't even consider writing CSS again since they discovered Tailwind.
