TailwindCSS has a great color scheme, good default styles, a way to remove unused classes, a way to make custom classes, and lots more. It would be the greatest thing if we could use its styles to make our own CSS frameworks. Guess what, we can!

I haven't done it yet, but the main steps look like so:

• Use tailwind's @apply to create your classes
• Create an HTML file (which will be used for purging unused classes)
• Run Tailwind (using PostCSS or whatever)

That's it! You will get a new CSS file with your framework ready to use.

There are a few more things you could try:

• Wanna use any of tailwind's built-in classes? Just add the classes to any elements in the HTML file I mentioned before, and they won't be removed from the CSS!
• Dig into the tailwind config files to get more stuff like dark mode, custom color schemes, plugins, and more!
• You got more ideas? Comment them down below!

I think this is the same approach that tailwindui is using.
