This is a lot slower to use than simply copying components from a pre-built UI library and making your own changes, or giving syntax to ChatGPT and asking for edits. You wouldn’t use Tailwind and any of its surrounding products unless you knew the syntax and what it does.

And the pricing is outrageous, this is more expensive than subscribing to ChatGPT, with not much benefit other than a visual preview that can be accomplished with copy/paste.




Thanks for the feedback.

> This is a lot slower to use than simply copying components from a pre-built UI library and making your own changes

Correct. This is something I am aware of, and next steps would be to make it easier to search and add free (open source) components to build up the UI. In retrospect I probably should have started with that, and then AI'd it.

This is true, but often as a Tailwind user I am stumpted on "how to create the thing in my mind". A good example is gradient text, but where the bottom of a letter like g is not cropped.

It might be. The $30/m price for an ChatGPT wrapper has to have very good fit for someone, and I am probably not there yet.


30 USD per month is extremely expensive for most web services in general.
