Tailwind makes things like dark mode and group hover/focus states dead simple with modifiers (dark:, group-hover:), keeping all your logic in your HTML. With inline CSS, you’d need messy JS, extra classes, or bloated style tags to handle the same.

It also enforces a design system (spacing, colors, fonts), while inline CSS often leads to small, inconsistent differences everywhere.

It’s a great solution to a problem a lot of people were having. That’s why it’s so popular.
