Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework that lets you build custom designs directly in your markup. V4 added a Rust-based engine, CSS-first configuration, and automatic content detection. The default choice for modern web development.
Reviewer scorecard
“Step functions with automatic retries and state management. The event-driven model is perfect for complex workflows.”
“V4 is the fastest CSS framework to build with. No context switching between files, instant builds, and the design system constraints prevent spaghetti CSS. Industry standard for a reason.”
“Durable execution without managing queues or state machines. The abstraction level is exactly right.”
“The 'ugly HTML' argument is dead. With component extraction and proper tooling, Tailwind codebases are more maintainable than traditional CSS. The ecosystem (shadcn, daisyUI) seals it.”
“Durable workflows are essential infrastructure for AI agents and complex async operations. Inngest is well-positioned.”
“AI tools generate Tailwind better than any other CSS approach. When v0 or Claude writes UI code, it's Tailwind. That alone makes it the right choice for AI-assisted development.”
