What is Tailwind CSS?
Tailwind is a low-level CSS framework that lets you build completely custom user interfaces without having to override any predefined components or styles.
Some other CSS frameworks (e.g.: Bootstrap) come with predefined components such as cards, buttons and so on, which might be useful at first since they help you build sites quickly, but can cause a lot of pain when you are trying to customize your site.
Tailwind on the other hand provides you with low-level utility classes to use wherever you want, which gives you the freedom to build fully customized designs to your taste and specifications.
Here are 10 free and open-source Tailwind CSS templates you can use to kickstart your next project.
