Chi · Border

Border

Use shorthand border utility classes to control border, border width and border color on elements.

Notation

Border utility classes can be defined using the format -b{sides}[-{breakpoint}]--{size}.

{sides}

t - use to apply border-top
b - use to apply border-bottom
l - use to apply border-left
r - use to apply border-right
x - use to apply border-left and border-right
y - use to apply border-top and border-bottom
blank - leave blank to apply border to all 4 sides.

{breakpoint}

Optionally include -{breakpoint} to apply the utility behaviour to some breakpoints. As a mobile first library, any applying to smaller breakpoint will modify also larger ones unless other class overrides this behaviour.

blank - leave blank to apply border to all breakpoints.
sm - use to apply border to sm and larger breakpoints.
md - use to apply border to ms and larger breakpoints.
lg - use to apply border to lg and larger breakpoints.
xl - use to apply border to xl breakpoints.

{size}

0 - use to eliminate existing border and set to 0
1 - use to set border to 1px
2 - use to set border to 2px
3 - use to set border to 3px
4 - use to set border to 4px
