Tailwind feels as logical as Prettier
Tailwind feels as logical as Prettier.

Tailwind
✅ Save time by using predefined styles
✅ Eliminate decision fatigue
✅ Easily switch projects

Society moves forward the more decisions we can take for granted.
With Prettier, I don't think about formatting. I don't check it in code reviews. It's a solved problem.
With Tailwind, I don't think about class names. I don't check them in code reviews. It's a solved problem.
Unique code formatting isn't a competitive advantage.
Unique CSS class names aren't either.
In a world where teams are standardizing these tasks, doing these things manually and bespoke is a *liability*, not an asset.
Tailwind is the future.
And I didn't even mention Tailwind's other giant benefits:
1. No more worries about CSS selectors leaking.
2. Tailwind eliminates duplication. It omits anything I don't use. So, it's a near certainty that Tailwind = less CSS in prod than a custom approach.
