Building modern frontends: React, Vite, Tailwind CSS and the tooling behind fast user interfaces.
React for the UI, Vite for the build tooling, Tailwind for the styles. This is the stack most new frontend projects start with in 2025. This guide wires all three together from scratch and builds a real application structure you can actually start a production project from.
Tailwind is a utility-first CSS framework. You style elements by stacking single-purpose class names directly in your markup. Half the dev community hated this idea, then started using it. Here's why it works and what you need to know.
Vite replaced Webpack for a lot of teams without much fanfare. Native ES modules, a dev server that starts in milliseconds, and a production build that doesn't require understanding 300 lines of config. Here's how it works and why the switch is worth it.
React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. Facebook built it in 2013, open-sourced it, and the entire frontend ecosystem reorganized itself around it. Here is how the component model works, why it took over, and what you need to know before writing a single line.
