When I first discovered Tailwind I was all "THIS IS AWESOME!" and was all in on using it. I even started working on a proposal for a book about it (lucky that I didn't go forward with that as v2 came out like 2 months later).

Over time I have come to find it a little verbose with all the classes. Tailwind definitely has its uses but I typically reach for good old CSS these days.
