What is the best CSS Framework to use with LiveView? Especially when it comes to things like modals, tooltips, responsive/adaptive designs, dismissable alerts, collapsible sidebars, accordions, drag-n-drop, carousels, etc. Thanks in advance!

Let me clarify how I use them
TailwindCSS - general CSS utility framework, used for styling
Animate.CSS - to do simple fade-in/fade-out for content that’s controlled by LiveView (just to make it less jarring)
AlpineJS - For simple interactions not involving data (ex: dropdowns, drawer menus, sidebar menu)
LiveView - Any interactions involving data

TailwindCSS + Animate.css + AlpineJS

I used to use Bulma as well. It was hard to believe when people told me I could build an entire site without touching css using Tailwind, but it’s absolutely true. Amazing project.
