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...

different business models. bootstrap was made by twitter which was making money in it's way. while tailwind their monetary model is selling components.

for me the only thing I wish bootstrap had was the money color options tailwind has e.g bg-indigo-400 etc
