About TailwindCSS with Django

Question

I want to use Tailwind CSS in Django project. When googling, I found following two ways.

1. Use CDN
2. Use Tailwind CLI tool

Using CDN is simpler, so I will use CDN, but doc says that CDN is not the best way.

Then I have questions.

1. Why Using CDN is not the best choice?
2. Which is better?

Answer 1

Why Using CDN is not the best choice?

Using the CDN might slow down the performance of your page. (Like explained here [Minute 6:30])

Which is better?

I would personally choose a local setup, because that's the way thats the way recommended and you should find the most documentation for; and once installed right, it should work smooth and properly.
