border-inline-color | CSS CSS Properties

Sets the color for both borders in the inline dimension (usually left and right). It's the logical way to style 'horizontal' edges at once, adapting perfectly for right-to-left text.

Quick example

.feature-box {
  /* Adds purple bars to the left and right */
  border-inline-color: #7c3aed;
  border-inline-style: solid;
  border-inline-width: 4px;
}
