Developers have kind of become hung up on how developer-y they can appear but it must means make/create really. As you said, it's just a word.
I know someone who writes one audited line a month & someone else who only pastes. Good devs are the ones that get the results needed, otherwise it is a badge.
I'm not really hung up on looking the part. But it would be nice if I could be more of one. I do "code" more frequently than I sometimes remember, but it's almost always vanilla CSS (I work on WordPress websites primarily).
On the plus side, even though I don't really feel like a developer, I know CSS much better now than I thought I would (though I generally don't do anything complicated).
Lol and here I am trying to move to Tailwind so I can focus more on building...
I suppose you could be right. I see a lot of people make really neat things with CSS. But I'm not actually design-oriented, so using CSS all the time is kind of boring to me.
I suppose it doesn't matter what you use to make something, as long as your having a good time. Tailwind looks pretty cool, haven't actually used it for anything yet though.
If you do use it, definitely use it with Purgecss though. It gives you a ton of utility classes by default—color utilities for text, backgrounds, and borders; responsive variant utilities for pretty much everything... Using Purgecss when building your production CSS shrinks it to an unbelievably small size.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
This is exactly what a dev would say.

By this measure, I'm doing gangbusters work. It's a good point for everyone to remember I think.
👍
It's the only real measure. The rest is glitter.
Does the parking ticket machine work or not?

Make a site about a topic you like on the side, code any parts you want.
CSS is very handy & will grow in power. 👍🔥

Tailwind does make putting a UI together simpler.
