User reviews
Gimli Tailwind is widely praised for its simplicity and effectiveness in generating Tailwind CSS styles, making it especially helpful for beginners and speeding up development. Users appreciate its debugging capabilities and overall usefulness. However, some recurring issues include limited support for axis-specific utilities (px/py, mx/my), problems with clipboard functionality on certain systems, and usability improvements like adding a search option, dark mode, or more intuitive application of styles. A few users have experienced technical glitches such as the extension appearing empty in Chrome DevTools.

Cons
- Lacks support for x- and y-axis utilities like px/py and mx/my, limiting some styling capabilities.
- Copy to clipboard function not working on M1 Mac Chrome for some users.
- Requires clicking to apply styles rather than applying by hovering, which some users find less intuitive.
- Missing features such as a search option to find properties quickly and a dark mode for better usability.

Ken Stumpf, 2024-09-06This tool is mind-bendingly good. No - it's not good. It's great. It's the best. What are you still doing standing around? Download it. Then eat a sandwich. It'll be the best sandwich you ever eat because you now have a new super power.
