It's not hard to use tailwind without knowing css. Google answers your question 90% of the time. The other 10% you read about the appropriate css and then translate that to tailwind.
Personally, I usually just look through component sites for something like I want, then modify it to my needs. 95% that works, sometimes I go build it out myself.
I'm fullstack, but more backend and that's where I'm most comfortable so the less I worry about design the better it is for my sanity, except I do like dabbling w/ the js layer in vue, alpine, or react.
