Compatibility is usually a claim. In Nakshora it is a test: a differential oracle compiles identical inputs through both engines and fails CI on *any* byte difference. Parity is a maintained property.
Why bother#
- Ecosystem transfer — every Tailwind 3.4 config, plugin and tutorial works (integrations).
- Hiring reality — teams already speak the grammar; Nakshora adds speed and tooling, not retraining.
- Escape hatches that work —
nakshora migrateports projects in both directions.
Conviction, not imitation#
The grammar is shared; the engine is original: JIT extraction, incremental cache, LSP, CSS-first config. Nakshora speaks the industry’s language with its own accent — see the design philosophy.
Note. Curious about the numbers? 11,343 static + 1,338 dynamic classes proven identical. parity comparisons.
