border-inline-start-color
Sets the color of the 'start' side of the inline dimension (usually the left border). It allows for easier localization without writing direction-specific overrides.
Quick example
.note-box {
/* Adds a subtle blue line on the logical starting side */
border-inline-start-color: #3b82f6;
border-inline-start-style: solid;
border-inline-start-width: 4px;
