On: Open-sourcing our progress on Tailwind CSS v4.0

[scotty79]

I'll take this version over tailwind anytime. It's one auto-formatting step from being perfectly readable for someone who knows css and styles tell me how it looks like and css classes tells me WHAT IT IS. And information (nearly?) completely missing from tailwind counterpart. I can also easily see what structure the DOM has.

Tailwind is a styling library, not label system. You want to know what something is? use the id attribute, it's not rocket science

Really? Because even in the cherry-picked half-assed example above I can more easily read the DOM structure than whatever this is.

So what is it doing in my html tags?

It's not a place for styling since css was invented.

Whatever this is? These are 7 html tags and I can see how nested they are in 10 seconds even without autoformatting.

<div class="custom-box"><div class="header"><div class="tab">app.css</div><div class="header-expand"></div></div><div class="content"><pre><code>@import "tailwindcss";</code></pre></div></div>

In tailwind example you need more than 30 seconds to even count them.
