    Generate Skeletons for Tailwind CSS▲7

    Hey HN! I was tired of wasting time making my apps prettier, so I created this little tool. Using the Tailwind CSS library, the generator takes the code you paste in and creates the HTML code for the page structure. It's a simple tool, but it could be a helpful time-saver for people who don't want to spend the time manually coding in the HTML. Let me know what you think and feel free to offer any suggestions.
