Vanilla JavaScript support for Tailwind Plus

This is a exciting use-case for custom elements, and probably how tailwind should have been implemented from the start, but it’s hilariously a paid feature?! (https://tailwindcss.com/plus#pricing) Intuitively, I’d expect the custom elements to be free and the framework integrations to cost money.

Tailwind Plus is a paid collection of UI components and templates.

TailwindCSS itself is meant to be nothing more than a styling tool, like Bootstrap...

The title of the blog post mentions Tailwind Plus so I’m assuming it’s a paid feature. The ambiguity is probably intentional.

It's not very expensive, all things considered. $299 for a single-user perpetual license (includes all future updates too) or about $1k for a team license[1].

If it saves you a bunch of time writing and maintaining the sort of components they are showing off, probably worth it?

Listen, I’m not against the Tailwind team getting their bag – they worked hard and created an amazing open source library. I just don’t think it’s in the interest of either users or maintainers to put vanilla JavaScript support behind a paywall.

Edit: apparently all framework integrations and the whole library and functionality is behind the same paywall? And regular tailwind is just the css classes/build process that I used to know? Do people not understand how casual readers might be confused about all this?
