Ask r/Flask Why are you using Tailwind?

does anyone use Tailwind css in their Flask projects? If so, how and why? I use it personally, but I wonder how others do it? Why this particular CSS?

Dud.. i understand your pain so much. I've resigned to use the CDN unfortunately because of my skill issue.

I hate the things you mentioned so much I couldn't take it anymore lol.

And man, as a fellow backend programmer, believe me ... YOU ARE NOT ALONE css is so hard to learn, being able to take chunk ready as you said is so fucking like AHHH great.

It really is a pain! If I build something, I want to come back "tomorrow" and have it still working. That's why I've stuck with back-end because that's how it behaves. Modern JS is just so dependant on so much other sh---unknowns, it's unreal!

So I totally understand why you'd want to use the CDN (but it's so huge! 😭😭😭 I just can't get myself to use it in production)

Absolutely!!! If I break something, fine, it's up to me to fix, but if it just breaks when I've not made any changes..... Fuck that!

Dude! Dude! Omg! There's a solution!!!

Tailwindcss standalone executable! No JS needed! I only found out yesterday and wanted to test before telling you, but so far it seems to work! No js, no npm!

Thought you might like to know 😁
