I finally gave TailwindCSS a spin for a dashboard project.
Pros: - No context switching between CSS and HTML - Utility-first = faster iterations - Easier to maintain consistent spacing, sizing, and typography
Cons: - HTML can get cluttered - Needs some setup for purging unused styles
Verdict: ideal for prototyping and small-to-medium scale UIs. Design systems feel within reach again.
