TailWind CSS which is a popular, modern CSS framework for writing inline css styles on components.
so it would be more accurate to just have tailwind be css with a suit.
Maybe but who whole premise is kinda wrong.
I don't think css is really the "father" of tailwind, given that it's also a dependency.
We declare children as dependents legally, don't we?
Oh I see, I use tailwind lol, I just never paid any attention to the logo. Also I wouldn't really consider it as a separate thing from css 😅 All the documentation tells you what resulting css it's going to generate from the class names.
Css father of toothpaste
Hi, remember meeee?
Gotta drop my favourite article about this: https://heydonworks.com/article/what-is-utility-first-css/
Utility-first detractors complain a lot about how verbose this is and, consequently, how ugly. And it is indeed. But you’d forgive it that if it actually solved a problem, which it doesn’t.
Love the tone!
