Let me disagree. This is HTML-first because you can always grab the compiled CSS and optionally, compiled JS and reference it in your plain HTML file via <link rel="" href=""> and it will work just fine.

The TypeScript and Tailwind insanities are just there for easier development and my convenience. ;)

Maybe soon, someone will publish the compiled CSS. IDK

But this is true for almost every web thing, and every web framework - you can just grab the final outputs and stick it into your web page.

So either your thing is "HTML-first", but so is everything else, or your thing is not "HTML-first", and some other things are.

So, until then, not only is this not HTML-first, it's not HTML at all.

To me (and maybe others), there's a difference between web development and Node/npm.

They are not one and the same.
