> The HTML, Javascript and CSS in a single-page application are not separable in any meaningful way. Maybe for some parts of your app, you can maintain this separation of you try, but it's not something that adds any value at all. Even if it could work, there would be absolutely no reason to try. The type of redesigns I do on this type of code affects HTML, Javascript and CSS equally, always.
I've heard different forms of this argument for decades in dozens of systems. Same old "why pay for abstraction" argument. I'm not going to answer. Either you figure out the answer or you don't.

I'm not saying you shouldn't make abstractions. I'm saying that Tailwind (in the context of a SPA framework) makes for better abstractions than traditional CSS.
