While converting this site from Hugo to Zola, I elected to dispense with Tailwind; partially because I wanted to try using plain CSS and partially because Zola and Tailwind don’t make an easy pairing. Along the way, I discovered that I don’t like Tailwind as much as I thought I did.
While experimenting with various static site generators, I’ve also been learning about Bulma (a traditional CSS framework) and TailwindCSS (a utility-based CSS framework). They come at the idea of a CSS framework from two very different directions, and if you’ve seen the Internet discussions, you’ll know that opinions are decidedly mixed.
