I wouldn’t get too excited about it to be honest. At one time they were also supporting Vue but it is now basically abandoned.

Vue has great web component support. Even React 19 (finally!) does.

Web components are a mess but this is a great application of them: shipping reusable components that work in all frameworks. It's the one and only killer application of web components.

Frankly I'm surprised they're marketing this as "for vanilla javascript" and not as a "now supports all frameworks" type positioning.

That’s not really the point. Tailwind UI depends on Headless UI. Headless UI had both Vue and React packages. The Vue package was abandoned. Many are in the process of finding workarounds for the issues or moving to another library. This new shiny thing can be used in Vue, sure. I know better now to not build anything on top of it though.
