Tailwind CSS

A CSS framework that lets you style pages using small utility classes right in your HTML.

Instead of writing custom CSS files and naming every class yourself, Tailwind gives you a set of ready made classes like flex or text-center that you combine directly on your elements. It sounds messy at first but it actually speeds things up a lot once you get used to it, since you can see exactly how something is styled just by looking at the markup. It's become one of the most common choices for building custom designs without starting from scratch every time.

Got a question?

Knowing what a term means is one thing; knowing whether it matters for your project is another. If you're not sure how it applies, a short conversation usually sorts it out faster than more reading.
