The classnames package is a popular utility for conditionally joining class names together. It's not Tailwind-specific, but it's often used in projects to manage dynamic class strings. Unlike tailwind-merge, it does not deduplicate or resolve conflicts specific to Tailwind CSS.
clsx is an alternative to classnames with a similar API and is used for constructing class strings conditionally. Like classnames, it does not offer Tailwind-specific deduplication or conflict resolution.
