Tailwind CSS is a utility-first library that's had some pretty extreme opinions since it was initially released over 5 years ago.
In this video, I give a basic overview of what Tailwind CSS is and how it can improve your productivity as a developer. I also talk about what pitfalls are commonly mentioned during discussions about Tailwind and how you can remedy those in your own applications.
If you haven't given Tailwind a try yet, I suggest you spin up a project with it and form your own opinion. Don't let me sway you!

I'm not that great at context switching, so I kinda like the Tailwind approach. Anyway, good points. :⁠-⁠)

Being able to use DaisyUI sounds super cool, had no idea you could do that! Also, you could technically customize your tailwind inline (p-[5px]), although it's probably not a great idea, since you might want to make it more uniform, the way you showed.

I'm not a massive fan of the inline tailwind classes, mainly for the point you just said (uniformity). Although if you absolutely have to have that pixel-perfect precision, it's not that bad. I'd probably just end up refactoring that to a specific class at that point!

@@aschmelyun exactly! Just thought I'd mention it, in case we got any "But I need 5px of padding" stragglers! lol
