What if we could achieve a responsive UI without being bound by the rules of a UI kit? Is there a way to achieve responsiveness and still keep our custom user interface designs? For developers who value a high degree of customizability Tailwind CSS offers more flexibility than a UI kit such as Bootstrap.

In this guide, we’ll explore the differences between Tailwind CSS and Bootstrap, and review some examples to demonstrate the advantages of using a utility-first CSS framework over a traditional UI kit.

Difference #1

Tailwind offers predesigned widgets to build a site from scratch with fast UI development.
Bootstrap comes with a set of pre-styled responsive, mobile-first components that possess a definite UI kit.

Difference #2

Websites created using Tailwind CSS are much more customizable.
Websites created with Bootstrap are known for their responsiveness and flawless design, but the looks are generic and similar.

Difference #3

Tailwind CSS uses a set of utility classes to create a neat UI with more flexibility and uniqueness.
Sites created using Bootstrap follow the generic pattern that makes them look identical.

Which one you would be using?

Personally, I prefer Tailwind upon Bootstrap as it uses a utility class approach and its ready made components are like a cherry on a cake.
