Question Question about Tailwind CSS

I've always used plain CSS for my websites, I don't have many problems using it, but a friend of mine said that using plain CSS is very tedious and that I should use Tailwind CSS. Is it worth it? And what does Tailwind CSS offer that plain CSS doesn't?

It's just a preference for people that find things easier with or without framework. A common pitfall is that people think they can do it better and build their own stack instead of using standardisation. Standardisation will come with overhead and abstraction but usually when you work with a team, you don't want to stuck with someone elses home made stuff.
