@Jermolene, @TElmiger and everyone else Tailwind is a CSS "utility framework". It has no components because it is designed to be hackable and simple. I've only briefly looked at it... but it seems perfect for TW. I believe it would to a large extent free the user *from having to go into the stylesheets*!
Here's a presentation <https://vimeo.com/294976504> on Tachyons which is very a similar framework (and the one that Thomas used for Bricks <https://tid.li/tw5/test/bricks.html>.) If I understand, Tailwind is more powerful and generic (and has also become more popular). The presentation early on states that you will HATE Tachyons/Tailwind. It seems to go against some basic rules and it looks ugly. ...but please look more and think about it from a TW perspective. I believe it would...: - remove the black box problem where it is not clear what a style does without digging into the stylesheets (...often in multiple places). - make creating selectors super simple! - make styling be a part of TW hacking instead of a separate world. (Be open minded!) - help to avoid inline styling and bad CSS practice. - minimize CSS conflicts/surprises - basically free the user from having to know/learn CSS! This short article <https://dev.to/mathijspim/tachyons-the-best-library-youre-not-using-4mbh> (again on Tachyons, but it's very similar) illustrates the *dramatic* consequences. I believe Tailwind is a bit more generic. Here <https://adamwathan.me/css-utility-classes-and-separation-of-concerns/> is one of Tailwinds key developers describing different approaches to CSS. Github <https://github.com/tailwindcss/tailwindcss>. It is very tiddlyesque too... it splits up styling into the smallest meaningful units and the user weaves them together into larger narratives... In fact, I believe the Tailwind approach would even itself be *enhanced* in a TW environment where the *user* decides if he wants to make abstractions by means of local macros. Please take a serious look. Several thousands of people are apparently already convinced. <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
