Why use Tailwind CSS instead of Tachyons for utility-first design?
The question is about Tailwind CSS
Tailwind CSS is often preferred over Tachyons for utility-first design because of a wider range of customizing, configurational flexibility, and a greater ecosystem. Tailwind makes developers’ lives very easy; it gives them the ability to customize themes, colors, spacing, and breakpoints within the ‘tailwind.config.js’ file and perform minute tuning of styles in order to make them meet the design requirements. It does responsive design quite well too, with breakpoint-specific utilities-for example, ‘sm:’, ‘md:’-which makes it more adaptable for big projects. It has very extensive documentation and an active community, and also includes some baked-in functionality like PurgeCSS that removes any unused CSS, leaving production builds quick and small. Tachyons is less complex but also less flexible or scalable, so Tailwind might be a more robust choice if a project needs to be large or highly customized.
