Tailwind CSS

also Tailwind

A utility-first CSS framework where you style elements by composing small classes directly in your markup instead of writing separate CSS files.

Analogy

Like a paint roller instead of a fine brush — much faster to cover ground.

Why it matters

It's the fastest way to style modern Next.js pages, so it speeds up building branded UIs (this hub uses it).

In practice

class="flex bg-black text-white p-4 rounded" styles an element with no CSS file.
