Tailwind Is the Worst of All Worlds

Adobe has been trying to build this product for 30 years and still haven't figured it out. Figma is trying and the best you can get is partially usable copy and paste CSS.

This is a "why don't they just make self-driving cars" question. The answer is that there are too many edge cases.

I don’t think building autonomous cars is on the same level as writing CSS.

We're entering a phase where natural language becomes the main interface for html and css development. Companies like Vercel, Wix, and Framer are integrating AI to turn design prompts into working UI components.

This is only the beginning. Within 2 to 3 years, domain-specific language models, trained specifically on frontend code, are expected to become common.

Regarding Adobe, they never really understood developers.

I'll believe it when I see it, and so far what I'm seeing is "a llm lied to me and deleted my codebase"
