I heard about Tailwind and looking at its documentation I thought there was something wrong with it. At the time I was surprised by the many fragmented classes that had to be set. Now that I look at it more closely, HTML semantics are basically not used, contextual styling is almost non-existent, and instead there are hundreds of CSS classes that have to be repeated with almost every tag. This results in a terribly large HTML source (“HTML bloating”), slows down development (you have to remember and constantly rewrite hundreds of classes), makes documents unreadable. And by having to repeat classes for elements of a certain type Tailwind violates DRY .
