Tailwind CSS
Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework that provides a set of low-level utility classes to help developers build custom, responsive designs directly in their HTML or JSX. Instead of writing custom CSS rules, developers use pre-defined classes to apply styling on a per-element basis.
For example:
This button uses Tailwind’s utility classes to apply background color, text color, padding, and border-radius—all inline, without writing any custom CSS.
Tailwind encourages a different approach compared to traditional CSS or component-based systems like BEM. It emphasizes:
Speed: You can style elements rapidly using pre-built class names
Consistency: Design tokens (e.g., spacing, colors, typography) are configurable via a tailwind.config.js file
Minimal CSS bloat: Unused classes are purged in production builds, keeping file sizes small
Tailwind also integrates well with component-based frameworks like React, Vue, and Next.js. Developers often combine Tailwind with tools like PostCSS and Just-in-Time (JIT) mode to optimize the development workflow.
Despite initial skepticism, Tailwind has gained massive adoption for its scalability, maintainability, and developer productivity.
