This is a very strange question, since one will not have bearing on the other. Django wont impact Tailwind

Agreed that they're separate, just wondering if anyone has experience using them in a production application.

Tailwind examples/docs are mostly for react so was wondering if there are any gotcha's that come about later down the line.

I have experience with Django, and experience using Tailwind, but not Django and Tailwind together.

In my opinion, if you like Django’s “batteries included” approach, you won’t enjoy using Tailwind. Bootstrap, while not trendy, comes with much more functionality out of the box.
