(01) Our take

Tailwind is the CSS system we've adopted most wholeheartedly. The v4 CSS-first configuration, shipping in 2024, was the last piece we needed — we now author design tokens in CSS and get utility classes for free. No build-time JavaScript config, no surprise regenerations.

We pair Tailwind with a small set of headless component primitives (Radix, shadcn/ui patterns) rather than using a pre-designed component library. The result is design systems that feel custom but inherit Tailwind's well-thought-out defaults for things like color math and spacing rhythm.

(02) What we build with it

Typical work

  • Design-system scaffolding
  • Marketing sites with strict brand guidelines
  • Product UIs where consistency matters more than novelty
  • Rapid prototyping with production-grade output

(03) How we engage

Engagement shape

Applied to almost every frontend engagement. No standalone "Tailwind project" — it's a substrate.
