Why is that a toggle. Toggles are refusing to make a decision and making your customers do it for you.

I don’t understand this absolute opposition to customization. What would you do instead?

Take decisions :). Customization as a way to make an app better for my personal needs versus me (as a designer) not knowing how the app should be used and shifting the responsibility to the end user.

This is nice. If you are looking for more choices, Tabler[1] is another such component template, and I have used it to knock off visual dashboards fast. Not related; just another happy user. 1. https://tabler.io

Does anyone know if there is something like this based on tailwind or utilizing tailwind? All these frameworks seem to be based on bootstrap.

When a tool I use across jobs has a bunch of features that are controlled by toggles, then what I get from the tool changes every time I change jobs. No two teams are going to vote 'yes' on the exact same set of features, which means each job is a new adventure in 'will I be able to make this tool sit up and bark for us or will it be a constant source of stress?'.

Making UI elements like the month picker optional screams of internal schizophrenia in the team. Just turn it on. If you have some loud customer who insists they not be there, make a custom CSS file that hides them.

Don't make your users have to spend scarce social capital to get features that were available in the box. Just turn it on, man.

We had a whole area of "opinionated" tools. I guess that's over now?
