Summary

It corresponds to the border-top-styleborder-right-styleborder-bottom-style, or border-left-style property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

It relates to border-block-start-styleborder-block-end-style, and border-inline-end-style, which define the other border styles of the element.
