    Changelog is impressive, I remember years ago when WHMCS's changelog was like this with impressive/nice stuff added in, unlike whatever the versions bring in now..

    I could never wrap my head around tailwind, building up those components everytime ended up with classes that were soooo long. I did find some really good looking libraries/templates but most were for nextjs/react and not the standard html/css stuff like bootstrap.

    It took them so long to customize Bootstrap and add AI-borders.

    I was sick of Bootstrap at the time but loved it at the beginning. Sass made it great.

    Both Bootstrap and Tailwind are very powerful, but they take different approaches. Bootstrap can look like Tailwind, and vice versa.

    And it's a trend because they are easy to use.

    I think the new Bootstrap is shadcn-ui. We will get sick of that anytime soon, but man they changed the UI flow for good.

    Honestly did a very good job. I'm not sure about the AI approach but someone's gotta do it.

    Literally looks like a dark version of my blog from 2004.
