What is the difference between Tailwind CSS and Bootstrap?

The question is about Tailwind CSS

Answer:

Tailwind CSS and Bootstrap differ in styling approaches. Tailwind CSS provides low-level utility classes to style directly in your HTML. That way, you don’t need to depend on prebuilt components to make custom designs. This gives you more flexibility and control but requires more effort in structuring the styles. Bootstrap is component-based. That means it is based on pre-defined sets of ready-to-use components such as buttons, navbars, and forms that allow you to quickly create standard responsive layouts. It is ideal for rapid prototyping and is also very good for maintaining design consistency. Tailwind is the better option for projects that need highly unique and custom designs. Tailwind will have much smaller CSS file sizes in production since it only compiles the classes that you use. Bootstrap can be heavy if not optimised.
