> In a way, using tailwind can be like variablizing your CSS at compile time
Isn't this what SCSS or Sass did though? They were around long before tailwind. Is there a reason to pick Tailwind over those? I assume most projects were using them then decided to migrate to tailwind once it became popular, but why did that happen? Was it just keeping up with the cool kids or some actual differentiating features?
I still just handwrite my frontend code so I'm rather ignorant on this topic, it seems like a lot more extra hoops than just writing by hand which actually isn't very difficult (but I'm a single dev on rather smaller projects)
