Why this course rocks

During this course, we will explore the features of Tailwind CSS.

Tailwind is a utility-first framework which aims to speed up the design process by removing the need for custom CSS.

In the past, every HTML element would get a single class and that class would contain a lot of custom CSS in a separate CSS file. Though this is still the general practice, it leads to huge CSS files, reduces the ease of maintaining those files, and yields a poorer developer experience.

Tailwind avoids this frustration!

Another advantage of a utility framework is its superior performance with caching. This is due to not busting the cache for every small CSS change.

Tailwind also gives you sensible defaults to make sure your sites look and feel polished. This is achieved through the careful use of color palettes, color shades, sizing consistency, and modern web best practices.

Tailwind is mobile-first and has an easy naming convention with responsive designs built in!

Need some customizations? No problem! Tailwind's robust customization system allows you to tweak everything in the framework via the tailwind.config.js file.

These customizations are beyond the scope of this course but rest assured that the default Tailwind classes are almost always sufficient.
