I'm new to tailwind, what's wrong with it compared to SASS, LESS, SCSS ?

[–] flashgnash@lemm.ee 6 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I'm not sure it compares to things like scss does it? I was under the impression it fills out a similar role to bootstrap and the like

I think it was an attempt at a joke... basically that the user introduces a faulty juxtaposition that doesn't make sense. One is a CSS framework specifically tailored to SPA's (or heaven forbid MPA's) by providing many generic classes that can be re-used, where as the other 3 are CSS pre-processors designed to simplify writing CSS, though technically speaking tailwind also does pre-processing, since it provides a boilerplate css reset, use of variables, functions, concatenation and compressing them together and oh god I'm the joke... I'm the joke here. I've served the punchline, which is a copypasta in of itself.

Well done, @devilish666@lemmy.world. Well done.

It bridges the gap between styling languages and frameworks. You use it for any styling, and it brings colour palettes, spacing etc.
