WindStrap – Bootstrap 5.3.8 to Tailwind CSS Using DeepSeek V4 Flash

SMRTR summary

WindStrap is a drop-in CSS stylesheet that reimplements all of Bootstrap 5.3.8's class names — buttons, grid, forms, components, utilities — using Tailwind CSS's @apply directive under the hood. You get Bootstrap's familiar API (.btn-primary, .col-md-6, .d-flex) while leveraging Tailwind's JIT engine and tree-shaking. Bootstrap's design tokens and dark mode theming are fully preserved, and the entire project cost $0.39 to build with AI assistance.
