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).

Tailwind CSS v4.0.0 Alpha
I wish tailwind would support attributify like https://github.com/unocss/unocss, which is much more readable for complex layouts:

Catalyst – Tailwind CSS Application UI Kit
I feel the same about people praising Tailwind.
Tailwind (and similar, I tend to use https://unocss.dev/) is not good for your frontend architecture BUT they allow you to be so fast, that it negates the benefits.
For a job well done, I'd follow the principles of https://maintainablecss.com/

What do you think we can do better to improve Vue position in the frontend space as a dominant UI framework?
I think UnoCss is may be better than Tailwind already and has a good Vue integration https://unocss.dev/

A design system for the federal government
haha, fair point. Still, I'm on the fence about how utility components are namespaced in USWDS. Perhaps giving users the flexibility to define the namespace might work better? One thing that bugs me is the absence of class-sorting like we have in TailwindCSS. Plus, there are some gaps I've noticed in USWDS. The naming, especially when comparing "padding-x-2" and "p-x-2", can be really annoying when switching around, maybe that could also be an option for the developer or project. Similar to the ideas antfu has on uno.css https://unocss.dev/ ♥

Why I Switched From Neovim to VSCode
Some exceptional libraries and frameworks only support VSCode, which you could argue is a bad thing, but it makes sense, VSCode is the most popular code editor after all. For example UnoCSS only has a VSCode extension, and it's my favourite way to write CSS. Astro has a LSP but I've found that the experience in VSCode is much better than in Neovim.
