> Is TailwindUI an alternate to Bulma ?

Kind-of. People usually pick one or the other, but they're not alternatives in the same sense as Bulma vs. Bootstrap vs. Zurb Foundation.

Bulma has opinions about structure and style, and its value proposition is providing out-of-the-box components so you can skip spending brain cycles on that design work. At a high level, Bulma believes projects reuse a lot of design patterns, and those shouldn't have to be rethought each time you need them.

Tailwind doesn't care what you want your project to look like, or how it's structured. Tailwind's value proposition is streamlining you choosing your own design, and removing footguns from that process. At a high level, Tailwind believes cookie-cutter styles are typically less reusable than you hope, that you should instead optimize for tailoring design patterns to each place they're used, and that style reuse is better implemented by e.g., React components than a CSS framework.
