Relume uses alternative in their Tailwind config for background colors, which seems like a humorous choice.

At a glance

The community member who made the post finds it funny that the Relume library uses the term "alternative" in their Tailwind CSS configuration for background colors, instead of the more common "alternate". They mention that every time they see this, they think of the band Nickelback.

In the comments, another community member agrees that this is an odd inconsistency, and notes that in their other components, they actually use the term "alternate" instead.

Also,

I find it funny that Relume uses “alternative” in their tailwind config for the background colors.

The typical most used name for that variable would be “alternate” in my eyes lol, every time I see it I think of nickelback now

Hmm yeah thats odd - in every other instance of our components we actually do use the word alternate. So its just an inconsistency with the react components unfortunately.
