And now, the post you've all been waiting for…

(probably not, but you get it anyway!)

The #CSS Framework Wars™ have come to an end. And we can thank…#Tailwind v4 for that!

Freely compose UI using native CSS variables & syntax, Tailwind design tokens in CSS (configured with CSS!), and Tailwind utility classes only where it makes sense. Hallelujah!

As historically one of Tailwind's biggest critics it is *weird* to sing its praises. 2025's biggest #WebDev surprise?

"Basecoat" ia "all of the shadcn/ui magic, none of the #React."

A components library built with #Tailwind #CSS that works with any web stack.

#euractiv hat übers Wochenende offenbar beschlossen auf #Privatsphäre und #Datenschutz seiner Besucher zu scheißen. Nicht nur den Datensammler #cloudflare einzubinden, sondern die rote Warnliste in #uMatrix so lang ist, dass scrollen notwendig ist. Zudem wurde zu #tailwind #css gewechselt (und als cdn geladen), von dessen Nutzung eher abgeraten wird.

Dann begebe ich mich mal auf die Suche nach einer neuen, seriösen Quelle für #Europa #News.

I'm back to working on https://github.com/ibrahim-sisar/EduLite , the #opensource #education platform that I am very passionate about.

We have 15 talented and passionate contributors, but I am looking to grow! That is why I have been working on a Central 'Community Wiki' for the project. Please, check it out, and let me know what you think!

Our three guiding values are 'Fair' (everyone can take part in the project), 'Open' (our community is open to all), and 'Free' (education should be free).

We are looking for #backend developers within the #Django and #Rest Framework.

We are looking for #frontend developers within the #React and #Tailwind Frameworks.

We are looking for a creative #designer / #designers to create wonderful UI/UX for students/teachers.

We are looking for #QA engineers to test our API and Frontend to ensure they work on low-quality internet or devices, to ensure accessibility.

Tailwind is the Worst of All Worlds, https://colton.dev/blog/tailwind-is-the-worst-of-all-worlds/.

The article explains why Tailwind (https://tailwindcss.com/) is based on and encourages bad practices, which creates more maintenance burden and larger bundles. The article also explains why Tailwind met success and what other better tools should learn from that.

Some critics argue that #TailwindCSS blurs the line between structure (#HTML) and style. But as someone used to #JetpackCompose, this feels natural to me. Applying utility classes in #Tailwind is a lot like using modifiers in #Compose.

I've gone from "Tailwind, meh" to “I have very strong opinions about the order of these Tailwind classes" in the blink of an eye

Not really liking TailwindCSS. Seems to be a backwards step, undermining the purpose of CSS (separating styles from HTML). Perhaps I'm missing something. Early days.

I'm wondering if anyone has tried or has advice on building @gohugoio themes using @penpot and #tailwind? If you know of a getting started guide please share. #design #opensource

#Tailwind is also becoming a 'system of magic'. Changing CSS color variables in there @theme extension gives me layout changes now.

“Tailwind's @apply Feature is Better Than it Sounds” by Zell Liew

https://css-tricks.com/tailwinds-apply-feature-is-better-than-it-sounds/

> Tailwind’s utilities are very powerful by themselves, but they’re even more powerful if you allow yourself to use `@apply` (and allow yourself to detach from traditional Tailwind advice). By doing this, you gain access to Tailwind as a tool instead of it being a dogmatic approach.

Me learning #Tailwind: Hmm this can't be right, how can I manage applying the same class to every element

Official docs: use multi-line cursor to edit them all at once!

Did somebody manage to upgrade Tailwind to 4.0.x in a Phoenix app without breaking Heroicons? I don't know how to get them to build now and they are not showing up. Halp
