Tailwind vs. BEM

Tailwind&#x27;s sweet spot (for me) is for functional utility CSS, such as whipping up quick designs. I use it daily for UI&#x2F;UX prototypes, along with AlplineJS. When a project grows and gets more stable, then I refactor from Tailwind to BEM.<p>BEM is excellent (for me) for bigger larger projects. It&#x27;s significantly easier to integrate with many more tools, and the site-specific learning curve can be accelerated by using site lookbooks e.g. &quot;Here&#x27;s each component, what it does, and how it&#x27;s named&quot;.
