> Then I'd have to change my HTML everywhere

Nope. Once you see same (sub)set of classes repeated, you would instead define .alert and .alert-danger using Tailwind's @apply directive, and you now have a single place to change how your `alert alert-danger` looks :)

Are you saying k8s is to blame for large file upload/download failures? Maybe your infra needs a tweak?

Can you elaborate? I can't agree with you. Tailwind is meant to provide a consistent design system, of which CSS size should never get out of hand (which is the case then using regular CSS). Whenever I use Tailwind, I end up adding maybe 20-30 lines of CSS and I never have to open a CSS (or other sass/less/whatever) ever again. Have you tried Tailwind or you're just assuming what you're saying?

Because you'll have 29 different margins, 67 different left paddings, etc all over the place. Tailwind allows you to create a consistent design system. CSS was supposed to be "write one class, use it everywhere instead of inlining". Usually it ends up with nobody reusing that class and everyone creating their on in the same codebase. There's an article I don't have a link handy, which explained how ridiculously many classes were used by GitHub/Lab, Airbnb, etc. Now even GitHub have their own utility based CSS system and others are following along, including Bootstrap with their CSS utility classes.

Have a look at Feedly. I, too, loved Reader. Feedly filled the void for me :).

I believe this is why recently Twitter reverted the change and now allows you to browse in chronological order.

Glad you like it :)! Thanks for sharing the link. One of the reasons I created Stackdraft was the thought "why cloud architecture diagrams can't look good as well?". It's like we're constrained to crude tools, but the technology has gone so far already :)

All right guys, looks like I can get some sleep now ;). If there's more questions, I'll definitely reply to them tomorrow, thanks!

Thank you! I really hope to improve the graphics further with postprocessing, more custom 3D models, etc.

Yes, 'multi-provider' was one of the reasons I built it :). You can naturally mix the icon sets as you wish, if you have cross cloud infrastructure, which is becoming more popular these days for HA purposes.

Thanks for your comment!

Thank you for your kind words. Yes - Stackdraft was partially inspired by Cloudcrafts sole focus on AWS. I don't blame Tomas though, only on surface supporting multiple providers seems like an easy task - I'm sure it's not. At this early stage of Stackdraft I focused on diagramming and presenting and naturally plan to add more advanced features.

To answer your second statement - I think it's a matter of doing one thing only and one thing well. While I do plan to support sub-resource level items like containers, I doubt the tool will reach as far as UML/software modeling, at least not in the foreseeable future. Do note I received lots of feedback from a LucidCharts users, who draws architecture diagrams, and in general there's a few good parts of LucidCharts I'd like to take example from.

Regardless, I will always welcome any ideas for Stackdraft, so thank you very much for your feedback :)! I appreciate you took time to leave this comment.
