What They're Saying
Standing ovation to Steve Kinney for creating a great overview of Figma with his course "Figma for Developers, v2" on Frontend Masters ! 👏 👏 👏

Recently completed the Tailwind CSS course on Frontend Masters taught by Steve Kinney!
Love the utility-first approach for rapid development and keeping styles consistent. Big thanks to Steve Kinney for the awesome breakdown!
Here's what I loved most:
Utility Classes: Building UIs with pre-defined classes for margins, padding, and typography feels great. No more jumping between files and hunting down conflicting CSS issues.
Boosting Efficiency: Tailwind lets you focus on layout and component styling, freeing you from writing tons of CSS.
Customization Power: Don't get fooled by the utility-first approach. You can still create custom classes and components for a unique design.
Overall, Tailwind CSS is seriously streamlining my development process. It's a fantastic tool for building modern, responsive websites quickly.
