Tailwind CSS

Agreed - they even include almost at the top of their homepage [1] a quote from the creator which includes: "If you can suppress the urge to retch long enough to give it a chance, I really think you’ll wonder how you ever worked with CSS any other way." [1]: https://tailwindcss.com/.

UnoCSS

Tailwind's implementation <i>is</i> a total mess. I have a custom preset for UnoCSS [1] focused on Tailwind compatability and use that for my company's low code platform. It's a couple orders of magnitude better for both size and latency and switching has allowed me to delete all the supporting code I'd written to work around Tailwind-the-implementation's shortcomings. I have minor complaints about Uno but I recommend it if you're having trouble with Tailwind. [1] https://github.com/unocss/unocss If you mean build your own design system then I've built four separate design systems in SCSS since 2009. I've been fine with switching to Tailwind instead because I can get similar results customizing the theme, it's more comprehensive than my systems, and the network effect advantages of somethign popular vs my one-off thing.

DaisyUI

> but with no 3rd party components available There are a ton of great 3rd party components available in tailwind now. https://daisyui.com/ is one I've been using. And a great thing about that is they're not React-specific, Vue-specific, etc. You can use them in raw html or your JS library flavor of choice.
