For a while, I blocked the Tailwind keyword on Twitter. I was a bit mad that @tailwindcss and author Adam blocked me on Twitter after I wrote a bit of criticism that got popular.

Ik ben on and off aan het werken aan een UI framework voor Svelte. Wat mij eigenlijk altijd al gestoord heeft in user interfaces is dat je een laag hebt van gestylede browser UI, en dan een laag custom plugins die helemaal niks van elkaar afweten qua styling en waar je maar in aan het […]

Can you please tweet about cooking? And where is your new post about sim racing? If you don’t like it, just don’t […]

I see Tailwind being used by a lot of people. I totally get why it’s so popular.

I think Tailwind is a perfect framework for […]

Within the Routify project, I am taking on various roles that don’t have too much to do with the coding of the project itself: design for the documentation website, promoting Routify […]
