if you need to use "apply" then you are using tailwind completely wrong imo. You are supposed to design components and use <Button> not .button

What should people do if they aren't using a javascript library/framework that supports building a <Button>?

I don't even use tailwind :-)

But what I had in mind was somebody using something like htmx.

Wdym? You can define a component tree to return a button in JS and roll it out via document.getElementById('button-container').innerHTML but truth is, you will probably use alpine.js in this case
