    Bootstrap or Tailwind CSS

    I used to make use of the bootstrap CSS for years. And I have learned that it was pretty good for my usage and also it turned out to be pretty simple with time and workflow.

    I also recently learned about tailwind though I am not actively making use of it but maybe in near future may consider for simple projects as well.

    Which among the two CSS framework have you used?

    I've used Bootstrap quite a bit but have never heard of tailwind. I highly appreciate you sharing with me what you found on bootstrap. Seems quite interesting to me that there could be an alternative like that. I probably will not invest the time in using it though since Bootstrap is so much more popular but still interesting.

      I use Bootstrap heavily. It's a good framework that for the most part stays out of your way when you want it to, while still giving you a lot of helpful base features, such as breakpoints, nice form fields, etc.

      Tailwind looks interesting, but I'm not a fan of the practice of placing extra classes that change the display in the markup. I would rather make a change in the CSS to change the markup of a component, rather than add or remove several classes in the HTML to change the display.

        Yeah 1@Entitled Stories[/USER] I am the exact same way. I don't do it for a living but I am extremely good with css. I see people who add extra classes such as "clearfix" and things of that nature. Personally, I just don't see the point of it. For one simple property clear: both you can just add it to the actual class itself. Though for mobile view it can be useful sometimes. Bootstrap isn't something I've learned as I enjoy doing it by hand and from scratch whenever I do actually develop a template but it's one of the most popular.

          Bootstrap obviously. It's convenient and easy to use. Also the output is quite nice. I never used tailwind, but as I have gone through user reviews, I don't think it is similar to bootstrap in any means.

            I've been trying to keep straight my bootstrap knowledge, and have been working on getting to know the ins and outs of it. While the tailwind website info looks nice, I don't want to end up confusing myself. Best bet for me right now, would be for me to stay on Bootstrap, and keep grinding till I have most of it memorized.

              When starting out with web development, I mostly did things with simply CSS before moving on to Bootstrap.

              After working with React, I looked at some frameworks such as Next.js and wanted to learn more about it. It, and I believe a few others, use Tailwind and don't play nicely with Bootstrap.

              Other than that, I would pick Bootstrap.
