Add missing border styles to Tailwind CSS

[eduardconstantin]

Currently, Tailwind provides utilities for border-solid, border-dashed, border-double and border-dotted, but some CSS border styles are missing (e.g. groove, ridge, inset, outset). These are part of the CSS spec and could be useful in certain design contexts.

You can already do this via arbitrary properties (no config):

<div class="border-4 border-gray-400 [border-style:groove]"></div>
<div class="border-4 border-gray-400 [border-top-style:groove] [border-right-style:ridge] [border-bottom-style:inset] [border-left-style:outset]"></div>

@eduardconstantin Also, I’d suggest opening a feature request under Ideas so the core team can consider first-class utilities.

Feature Request

[adydetra]

Sounds good! Yup, you can close this discussion. A PR would be great, thanks!

Do be aware of .github/CONTRIBUTING.md:

If there's a new feature you'd like to see added to Tailwind, share your idea with us in our discussion forum to get it on our radar as something to consider for a future release before starting work on it.

Please note that we don't often accept pull requests for new features. Adding a new feature to Tailwind requires us to think through the entire problem ourselves to make sure we agree with the proposed API, which means the feature needs to be high on our own priority list for us to be able to give it the attention it needs.

If you open a pull request for a new feature, we're likely to close it not because it's a bad idea, but because we aren't ready to prioritize the feature and don't want the PR to sit open for months or even years.

@wongjn I read the contributing.md that's why I opened this discussion, I wanted to be sure the PR will be approved.
Should I bother to open one?

[wongjn]

I personally wouldn't until some maintainer response but each to their own. I'd just implement in my own projects using @utility if I needed this feature.

[eduardconstantin]

ok, I'll wait for approval.
