Reviewer scorecard

Still the best API development environment. Postbot generating tests from your API schema saves hours. Collections shared across teams are essential.

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.

Skeptic
80/100 · ship

It has gotten bloated over the years but the core functionality is unmatched. The AI features are genuinely useful, not just checkbox items.

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.

Futurist
45/100 · skip

In an era of AI agents that can call APIs directly, do we still need a GUI for API testing? The future might be AI testing APIs autonomously.

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.
