`border-inline-end-color` CSS property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It's been available across browsers since September 2021.

The border-inline-end-color CSS property defines the color of the logical inline-end border of an element, which maps to a physical border color depending on the element's writing mode, directionality, and text orientation. It corresponds to the border-top-color, border-right-color, border-bottom-color, or border-left-color property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.
