Tailwind CSS

Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework. You compose layouts from small classes in markup instead of hand-writing large stylesheets. We assess it for internal web UIs and marketing sites; backend-heavy work does not require it.

Blurb

Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework for rapidly building custom user interfaces.

Summary

When to use: React/Vue/Next sites where designers want fast iteration; teams comfortable with class-heavy HTML and a build step (PostCSS).

When to skip: no customer-facing CSS; design system already locked on another stack; email templates and PDFs that cannot use utility pipelines.

Pairs with: component libraries (Headless UI, shadcn); design tokens via tailwind.config; purge/content paths in CI for small bundles.
