Why I don't like Tailwind CSS

My issue with tailwind is the absolutely arbitrary naming scheme, I developed something similar to tailwind but the CSS naming was created to be mnemonic and use common property values (based on top 10,000 site CSS property values and few extra). `display: flex` was `di-fl`, `display: flow` was `di-fw`, etc.

are you sure those are easier to remember than the tailwind equivalents ("flex" and "flow-root"?)

Yes because the naming was generated from a programmed ruleset, nothing was arbitrary
