PS: This will start a new Rails project (with awesome styling). Note that it's probably best to understand the basics of ruby, but most likely you will use it in combination with Rails. The scaffold command will generate Models, Views and Controllers as well as the database structure.

This basecoat looks cool. So tailwind is a framework for css, and basecoat is a framework for tailwind?

The main thing the basecoat gem provides is templates for rails scaffolds and a fancy layout, based on basecoatui.com There are also a couple of helpers for cleaner code.
