It might happen, but I don’t think it would kill the value. There are tons of free and pretty great UI kits, CSS themes, etc already. Adam Wathan has done a really good job building up a community around Tailwind, and that brand and goodwill is part of the value here, I think.

There are tons that look visually appealing, but very few I've found that take a component-based approach (where they document each component individually - or think about how they interplay with each other). I've found the CSS is usually muddled, they often have legacy build pipelines that has to be rewritten to fit with Webpack, and a distinct lack of flexibility.

If Adam solves that side, Tailwind UI will be worth the money.

If it causes other theme providers to up their game, even better.

You just can take any bootstrap theme. The component design is the basis of bootstrap.
