      Zacann0n My point is not really a capsulated here (more just disdain for Tailwind), but it's that Cascade and is far and away the most powerful part of CSS - by an order of magnitude, at least. Tailwind has leaned farther than any other tool into a class for every rule.

    Zacann0n It flattens specificity (intentionally) and destroys any potential cascade (intentionally) and by doing so demolishes the utility of a separate style language. It would be much better to just inline styles directly on the elements and not use CSS [classes|sheets] at all.

      Zacann0n Using semantic CSS that describes the content it is styling is best. Utility CSS will always suck, and leaning harder into it is a terrible, incorrigible mistake. aleksandrhovhannisyan.com/blog/why-i-dont-like-tailwind-css/
