Request to Add Tailwind CSS Icon to Core UI

[joey-ma]

Overview

I would like to propose the inclusion of a Tailwind CSS icon in the Core UI library. This addition would expand Core UI’s relevance by supporting Tailwind CSS—a popular and growing utility-first CSS framework.

Rationale

1. Increasing Adoption of Tailwind CSS:
   Tailwind CSS has seen exponential growth among developers, especially for modern, responsive design systems. Including its icon in Core UI could cater to a significant user base.
2. Alignment with Core UI Goals:
   Core UI aims to provide tools for building comprehensive, user-centric interfaces. Tailwind CSS simplifies complex CSS workflows, making it a natural complement to Core UI.
3. Consistency with Other Frameworks:
   Core UI already supports various framework icons (e.g., Bootstrap, Angular, React, Sass). Adding Tailwind CSS ensures parity and continuity for developers who use multiple tools and frameworks.
4. Practical Use Cases:
   Developers frequently use framework icons for documentation, tutorials, marketing, and showcasing project dependencies. A Tailwind CSS icon in Core UI allows for seamless branding and professional presentation.

Design

• Official Branding:
  The Tailwind CSS brand assets are publicly available on their website and the Tailwind CSS logo should be represented as an icon adhering to its official branding guidelines.
• Icons8 has an icon for Tailwind CSS.

Benefits

1. Community Engagement:
   Demonstrates Core UI’s support for the rapidly growing Tailwind CSS ecosystem, encouraging adoption of both.
2. Broader Appeal:
   Reaching users in the Tailwind CSS community will enhance the visibility of Core UI, potentially increasing its user base.
3. Ease of Use:
   Including the Tailwind CSS icon simplifies workflows for developers using Core UI, without needing to resort to another design kit / UI library. I definitely did not want to use both Core UI & Icons8 if Core UI alone is able to meet all of my needs.

Thank you for considering this request. I believe it will be a valuable enhancement to Core UI’s offerings.
