Currently, when creating a new Blazor project using the .NET CLI (dotnet new blazor), the default template includes Bootstrap as the primary CSS framework. While Bootstrap is widely used, Tailwind CSS has gained significant popularity among developers for its utility-first approach, flexibility, and performance benefits.

It would be beneficial to provide an official Tailwind CSS template for Blazor projects, similar to the existing Bootstrap-based template. This would allow developers who prefer Tailwind over Bootstrap to start with a clean, optimized setup without having to manually remove Bootstrap and configure Tailwind.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add a Tailwind option to the Blazor project template
Example command:
dotnet new blazor -css tailwind
This would generate a Blazor project pre-configured with Tailwind CSS, replacing Bootstrap styles and dependencies.
Support for Blazor Server & WebAssembly :
The template should support both Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly.

Additional context

Many developers manually configure Tailwind in Blazor projects by removing Bootstrap and setting up Tailwind from scratch. Having an official template would streamline this process and encourage more .NET developers to adopt Tailwind.

Would love to see this feature considered in a future .NET release. Thank you for your time and consideration!
