Tailwind CSS Border Style

In Tailwind CSS, the border-style property is used to define the style of the border around an element. There are several styles available, including solid, dashed, dotted, double, and none.

How to apply Tailwind Border Style

In Tailwind CSS, you can apply a border style to an element using the border-{style} utility, where {style} is the border style. For example, to apply a solid border, you would use the border-solid class as shown below:

1<div class="border border-solid">This div has a solid border.</div>

For example, to give a div a dashed border:

1<div class="border border-dashed">This div has a dashed border.</div>

For example, to give a div a dotted border:

1<div class="border border-dotted">This div has a dotted border.</div>

For example, to give a div a double border:

1<div class="border border-double">This div has a double border.</div>

For example, to give a div a none border:

1<div class="border border-none">This div has a none border.</div>

Customizing Tailwind Border Styles

Tailwind CSS allows you to customize border styles using the tailwind.config.js file. You can extend the default configuration and define your own custom border styles.

Here's an example of how to add a new border style:

1// tailwind.config.js
2module.exports = {
3  variants: {
4    extend: {
5      // ...
6      borderStyle: ["hover", "focus"],
7    },
8  },
9};

1<div class="border border-hover">This div has a hover border.</div>
