Why We're Breaking Up with CSS-in-JS
I think TW syntax is great as a CSS shorthand. I think it can be a great tool for making highly descriptive styles in a far more succinct fashion. I think if you you use Twind compiler and you store TW syntax outside of your templates/JSX and you just compile it down to descriptive class names, that's a great use of Tailwind. Then you get the advantage of meaningful names applied to elements in the template, and if you need to refactor/fix a style, then you can find it much easier. It also makes it a lot more dynamic, which standard Tailwind which can be a PITA to make dynamic (e.g. for dynamic behavior in Twind, you can have functions that generate TW style strings and use interpolated strings without having to worry about if the build-time TW compiler understands all the possibilities).

What programming languages do you use the most?
But at least you like something. And I get why people like Tailwind, but I end up finding it constricting for behavior that results in dynamic styles. But I've tried Twind which is a runtime TW compiler and it fixes most of my complaints and it has the same SSR-ability like Stitches & Emotion.

Why CSS-in-JS?
The CSS-in-JS library solves problems of global nature of CSS and of specificity by providing scoping in a unique class-name. It has some cost attached to it i.e run-time which is being solved by order libs vanilla-extract-css. I'm a big fan of tailwind and I honestly believe it is enough for your project. If you also need dynamic styles then CSS-in-JS is better over tailwind, though there are solutions like twind which provide a flavor of tailwind with the CSS-in-JS approach they do have all cons of any CSS-in- JS libraries. I'm very excited about styles by Facebook and waiting for the day it will be open-sourced or CSS itself evolves to me provide scoping and be more modular, until that day comes I'm betting on CSS-in-JS with stitches and vanilla-extract-css.

Styling in Fresh
what framwork are you coming from? i honestly wouldn’t try fresh unless you are using tailwind - bootstrap components are jsx based, and fresh is based off islands architecture which would make integrating the two trickier since youd have to route through deno + the preact compat lib. if you really want to do it, read into this. that being said, tailwind is a very powerful tool. i use it daily in nearly every element on front end, and as someone who likes avoiding design as much as possible ive found tailwind (and twind) are extremely pleasant to work with since it’s mostly class/keyword based styling as opposed to css / sass / scss styling

Looking to compile tailwind from a string if it detects any tailwindcss classes in it
I want to do something similar with Remix to make a separate stylesheet per route with content coming from a CMS like WordPress. I’ve had my eye on Twind once they add compatibility with v3 and all the JIT stuff. https://twind.dev/

A quick review of the Fresh web framework
When initializing a new project, Fresh will also ask if you want to use Twind, which is a Tailwind-to-JS library. If you choose this option, then you will have the power of Tailwind without creating a config file or using PostCSS, which I thought is pretty cool.

TailwindCSS & DaisyUI in the Shadow DOM
However, using popular styling frameworks like TailwindCSS and DaisyUI inside the Shadow DOM isn’t straightforward. Since styles in the Shadow DOM don’t inherit from the global stylesheet, you need a strategy to ensure your component still benefits from Tailwind’s utility classes and DaisyUI’s prebuilt components.

How to detect classes contained in ruby gems in Tailwind 4
We briefly tried to use a glob in the gem path in the Tailwind configuration (as in @source ".../.bundle/gems/flowbite-*/...") but this did not work, probably due to a limitation of the Tailwind scanner regarding symlinks.
