Usually, you have written CSS when you want to style your web pages. Tailwind CSS gives you predefined classes that you can include in your HTML directly. The framework covers everything you might need: colors, sizes, font types, margins, spacing, flexbox, rounded corners, shadows, etc. So you can write a fully customized design without having to write any CSS. This way of working gives you several advantages. For example: You don’t spend energy choosing class names. You don’t have a CSS file to maintain. The styles are local to each page.
