I had originally planned to migrate the project from Bootstrap to Tailwind CSS/UI after completing the MVP.

I had originally planned to migrate the project from Bootstrap to Tailwind CSS/UI after completing the MVP. As it turned out Tailwind introduced some major build performance slowdowns with 2.0, making it unfeasible to be used with larger code bases. Sadly I also had to request a refund for my purchase of Tailwind UI realizing that even third-party support for Angular is pretty much non-existent.

I've learned quite a lot in the process of the migration attempt. Most important take-away is to not underestimate the amount of work involved with switching a grown codebase to another CSS framework - especially when you rely on third party Javascript components building upon your current CSS framework.

In other news Wordpress publishing is now available and you can even create new articles from uploaded Microsoft Word documents. Next stop: Facebook and Twitter publishing modules.
