You don’t have to if you define it globally.
Then you're just reimplementing CSS classes in Tailwind.

I wish Deno’s future and popularity was more known. I’d love to try my next side project in Deno, but I’ll probably stick to React/Next and maybe Rails.

Have you tried it on a real project? Tailwind is a huge time saver when compared to traditional CSS or SASS.
How on earth can styling every **damn hyperlink inline over and over again be a time saver?
Html is split into components or views or partials. Links are inside loops etc.

#146It'd be nice if there was a way to try the demo without signing in. That said, this looks like a good product. Are there other similar/competing things for Rails, and are there other competing SaaS-in-a-box things for other frameworks?
https://github.com/smirnov-am/awesome-saas-boilerplates collects such frameworks, it lists 4 for Rails.

#147Wow, hi everyone! Was just about to walk over for the first day of RailsConf when a friend let me know we were #1 here! Honored! I'm the original creator of Bullet Train, although a number of people now work on it. It's been a fun journey to this point! When I first started building Bullet Train, it was a relatively unique offering. There weren't that many full-featured "SaaS starter kits" out there, although there w…
I'm trying to move a company that is now selling simple wordpress websites (and doing actually pretty well, do to their super expertise with design/graphic and marketing) to a 'higher' step with RoR, and BT seems something that may help them a lot approaching Rails.
Can anybody suggests resources, links, advice on how to start this new adventure?
