I never understood the problem that tailwind #css solves. Nor why I would need it.

I needed a quick landing page and thought: let's find out. Let's build it with tailwind.

784 (I counted them) class names further, my email and subscribe button still don't align. Something that would be three lines of CSS. I seriously have more KBs in class names than I would've had in handwritten CSS.

Really: what problem does tailwind solve? Why would I need it? I must be missing something.

Tailwind doesn't solve a technical problem, it solves a recruiting problem. It's just the next in a long series of products that attempt to abstract away and simplify core browser technology in such a way that we can avoid retraining developers from other specialties into web development.
