Why is tailwind so popular?

• headlessui

  83 14,746 8.9 TypeScript

  Completely unstyled, fully accessible UI components, designed to integrate beautifully with Tailwind CSS.

  

  Tailwind also pairs well with component-based UI frameworks like React, Vue, and Svelte because the "HTML bloat" that others have mentioned is mitigated to an extent when you have separate reusable components. There's also https://headlessui.dev/ which is a set of React and Vue components (think thins like dropdowns, modals, etc) designed specifically for use with Tailwind and maintained by the Tailwind team.

  Tailwind works very well with React, but this is required https://github.com/ben-rogerson/twin.macro. It makes development much easier.
