CSS's problems are Tailwind's problems

Tailwind CSS, a popular utility-first CSS framework, has gained widespread adoption despite several drawbacks. It exacerbates existing CSS problems, offers limited solutions for applying styles to multiple elements, and increases JavaScript bundle sizes. While Tailwind enforces consistent design through a global config file, it also introduces new challenges in readability, maintainability, and developer experience. The framework's success may be attributed to its out-of-the-box solution for design consistency, but alternatives like vanilla-extract offer better type safety and flexibility.
