prettier-plugin-tailwindcss
A Prettier plugin for Tailwind CSS that automatically sorts classes based on our recommended class order.
Others have already replied, but if you need to structure your TailwindCSS classes, I recommend their official Prettier plugin which integrates well into an ESLint setup.

Have you seen/tried CSS Modules? It's built into CRA and Vite, and it lets you write styles that are scoped to the component. I've heard people talk about using them alongside Tailwind, so I don't think it's necessarily an either/or situation, but to me it feels a lot more natural.

Barebones grid and flexbox provide tons of control without much effort for a simple drip-in positioning.
