Industry Leading Dev Tools
CSS Size
Tailwind's just-in-time compiler generates only the CSS you actually use. For example, this site's CSS is only 160 KB.
| Project Name | CSS Size |
|---|---|
| USWDS + Tailwind | 123 kilobytes (4 times smaller than USWDS) |
| USWDS | 2.4 kilobytes |
JS Size
Consistent and pure state logic achieves a significantly smaller bundle size while also ensuring framework-agnostic compatibility.
| Project Name | JavaScript Size |
|---|---|
| USWDS + Tailwind | 66 kilobytes (3.5 times smaller than USWDS) |
| USWDS | 243 kilobytes |
Compile Time
Using tsdown, a Rust-based bundler, we achieve blazing-fast build speeds. The modular approach means you only ship what you use.
| Project Name | Compile Time |
|---|---|
| USWDS + Tailwind | 0.6 seconds (7 times faster than USWDS) |
| USWDS | 2.4 seconds |
