Using TailwindCSS and Styled-Components in the same project?
Opened this issue · 2 comments
Hey @orama254 , I have noticed you are using both TailwindCSS and Styled-Components on the React application. I have been doing this a lot lately and honestly I usually feel a little sense of guilt :).
Two Questions:
- What is your "why?"
- Just wondering if you've ever done any benchmarks on how having the two in the same application affects performance.
Hello @kibuikaCodes, good observation.
to answer your questions:
Q1: For this particular POC, I was testing out both implementations to get familiar with how each can work independently depending on the needs of a particular team. This is more of creating a design system that suits different types of developers on a team. The css-in-js option was very straight forward. The tailwind option was a bit tedious when setting up(on the storybook side) but everything was ok later on.
Q2: I haven't done any performance benchmarks yet with both of them on a codebase, but it would be interesting to find out

Nice. Looking forward to the documentation. I am looking for some React-TS project to contribute to and a design system seems pretty cool.
