  • What working with Tailwind CSS every day for 2 years looks like

    Thanks for the vanilla-extract recommendation, I'll be using this!

    In my case, tailwind was useful for providing a handy set of vocabularies for simple and common stylings. But once customizations start to pile on, we're back into SCSS. Using 2 systems at once meant additionally gluing them with the postcss toolchain, so effectively we have 3 preprocessors running for every style refresh.

    Looking in at TypeScript from the clojurescript ecosystem though, I'm still yet to see an equal to https://github.com/noprompt/garden or https://github.com/Jarzka/stylefy: single language, excellent composability, compile-time anonymous class names, inline styles... almost like they solved CSS (except for typing)

  • Clojure Single Codebase?

    I spent some time doing this ~3 years ago, so I don't know about now, but to my knowledge it was the only language where you could really use one language for everything: no HTML (via hiccup), no CSS (via garden), clojure/clojurescript everywhere, and no shell (via babashka).

    Is Photon a DSL made with Clojure then? Or is it it's own language completely, (maybe this one?: https://github.com/HashLDash/Photon)
