In the webdev world being late is the same as being early. Just wait for the pendulum to swing back.
Tailwind is like GenZ has discovered the bgcolor="" attribute.
> Markup and styling are intrinsically linked, making any change to the markup most likely will require changes to the styling, and vice versa.
No, not vice versa. It's only in one direction. Changing the component requires changing styles, but changing styles doesn't require changing the component if it's merely cosmetic. If I have a button and I want to make it red the button doesn't have to know what color it is.
There’s nothing “gen z” about Tailwind, and there’s no pendulum effect either, and dismissing the very real benefit thousands of people report from Tailwind based on that is very small minded.
That kind of lack of intellectual curiosity is not a great trait for an engineer.
