    This is a really cool idea. The use of custom attributes without `data-` before it makes me a little nervous. Is that a concern here? I saw `project` being used on elements and if …

    This takes away so many of the criticisms I see in this thread. The issue with Tailwind, and my only minor criticism, is just long, unreadable, not easy to deliminate lists of clas…

    If I didn't sit at a desk way too much I'd give it a shot. There seems to be some solid advantages.

    I really like Arc. Takes some getting used to but worth the adjustment I think.

    "it's trivial to edit and add stuff, and requires basically no maintenance whatsoever." What an absolute dream.

    If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.

    I don't recall that, just to not rely on the order of an object's keys, which appears to be outdated advice (at least for Javascript). https://2ality.com/2015/10/property-traversal…

    I want to say this but too lazy to defend it.

    This is why I'm so bummed by it.

    I know it's going to be abused to hell like everything popular but definitely a useful power tool. It'll be really nice for container queries when they're ready. Something like: `w…

    There's `space-y-N` which does exactly this, `space-x-N` for horizontal.

    If you want to change the padding in a project that's using Tailwind you only need to look for classes that begin with `p` followed by a letter for a side or x and y for an axis (s…

    I'm sorry I'm just not seeing the value in it. I'm just seeing more complexity JS and CSS wise without solving any problems.

    I'm just saying if you want to target something on an element it needs to be set in an attribute and classList takes care of this. I use classes strictly for styling. I change thes…

    I wasn’t aware of the tilde attribute selector. Still a lot more characters, though. The classList api is still a lot more suited for this than dataset. None of the modifications d…

    Totally talking without thinking about it too much here: The classList API makes modifications to the class property very easily. You'd be essentially limited to one identifier in …

    You're changing the source order doing this which can get messy plus generating a lot of long selectors. Example: .m4, .profile-card, .other-card, .header, .foo, blah { margin: 4em…

    This is how you can do all of that: class="hover:red" -> .hover\:red:hover { color: red } class="before:red" -> .before\:red::before { color: red } class="medium:red" -> @media (mi…

    I'm a frontend developer of about 15 years as well and I think functional css makes a lot of sense. My biggest argument for it is not having to name every thing. You know how many …
