Every New Developer Portfolio: Tailwind CSS, Dark Theme, Neon Colors

Description

A four-panel meme using the Squidward from SpongeBob SquarePants 'Daring today, aren't we' template. In the first panel, a fish customer approaches the Krusty Krab counter saying 'I'll have a...' with the response being 'TAILWIND CSS' (large white text). In the second panel, the fish adds 'DARK THEME' and Squidward responds with 'How original'. In the third panel, the fish says 'NEON COLOR' and Squidward delivers the punchline 'Daring today, aren't we'. The meme satirizes the extreme homogeneity of modern developer portfolios and web projects that all use the same tech stack and aesthetic: Tailwind CSS for styling, dark mode as default, and neon accent colors -- resulting in thousands of websites that look virtually identical

      I hate it. I've loved just that (minus tailwind) since.. always?

        idk, last time when I wrote frontend tailwind was so good. But nowadays, CSS is powerfull enough so no tailwind/less/etc needed and tailwind is descending I guess.

          I meant the looks
