Tubey Racers is a newly released Racing Championship in video format about an apocalyptic race crew trying to save 2020 by battling it out in the tracks.

I developed this during lockdown and will be releasing daily races for a while, until we see who wins the championship at the end.

Tech stack includes: Typescript, React, Less and a powerful AI (Math.random()).


But can you do what CSS Zen Garden does only by changing HTML? If you can't, it means you failed at separating concerns.

Additionally, applications that you need to customize/theme usually makes it hard for us to edit the HTML. The only option is to edit the CSS. In this case, you whole argument breaks down.

p.s.: In your case, I believe Tailwind should be pushing more for the use of @apply, instead of making those god-awful markups :(


> But can you do what CSS Zen Garden does only by changing HTML?

Yes of course you can, if you can change the HTML you can build an entirely different website, and you don't have to change the CSS at all because with something like Tailwind it's a "universal stylesheet".


You'd still need to write some custom CSS depending on the design you want to achieve, though. So, you're finally not only changing just the HTML.


Not true at all. You can build two sites that look completely different without changing the CSS at all if the API of the CSS framework is low level enough, like Tailwind, Tachyons, etc.


I truly believe this is still the way to go if you want to have any hopes of keeping your HTML/CSS maintainable and easily customizable.
