- The border-image property is a blast from the past for anyone who had to make buttons with round corners on them back in the 2000s, but these days we can use it for fun gradient effects too!

This is borderline fantastic

This comment should be pinned for posterity :P

No, this is borderline godtier. Saying borderline fantastic is the same as saying barely fantastic
@@OLDACCOUNT_notfireman okay Shakespeare
5:38 "This isn't what you'd think it is" - that's a great description of CSS properties in general!
This is so cool. I want to see more of these little design hacks for common designs patterns.
I have just implemented the transparent gradient border in my website thanks to you! Awesome! I actually use it in an :after element behind the semi-transparent background for my articles with the z-index set to -1. 😃
Damn .. been searching all over the place for gradient borders.. I just used to add multiple backgrounds with proper positioning and size to emulate gradient borders.. or just layer ::before to get gradient border..
This was too informative
Love you bro
I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working, but of course coming to a Kevin Powell video you learn exactly what you need
Amazing!!
You make me fall in love with css!
Excellent video, never used borders like that and I think I will start using it from now on ^_^
Get well soon Kevin!
Great content as always!
This is amazing! Thanks @Kevin
this was great. was able to use it immediately at work. Thanks
Holy crap this is mindblowing. Thank you! I'm going to mess around with this on my current project.
This is really cool. Thank you sir!
Nice content Kevin
I also used gradient borders in some of my recent projects
One drawback is that it doesn't work with border radius
i almost always learn something new, thanks!
Thanks! Very useful, as usual.
Perfect, I am coding my small project now, as I am not a designer i try to make things look simple, but i always want to add some artistic touch to them. The transparent border is something i need)
Thanks for your explanation, very clear and helpful, fantastic!
Man you just saved my life with this tutorial
Thanks a lot
great video! Thanks kevin!
Great video 🙏🏾🖤
Really fantastic thing from border image, thanks for sharing my friend
enjoyed the examples at the end.. just wow
KP CSS Tutorials as it's finest. ☝️🙌
Last time I use border-image when it was as an exercise in a paper tutorial book and it was almost useless in real world. But now, with a gradient, that might be usable! Thanks!!
I really enjoy your tutorials, voice and positive energy, God bless you brother🙏💙
Mind blowing and really beautiful:)
that was some pretty slick border action. I need to inject this knowledge into the designers at work so they only design based off the things I already know ha
Your video contents are top notch Sir . Thanks.
Awesome video!!!
Omigosh! I didn't know this was doable! This video would have helped when I needed to do a gradient border a while back. Dang. Haha.
Very useful video, thanks
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO
amazing video, thank you!
Such a cool things~ thx
Nice!!! Thx!
Well, that's new
Thank you Kevin
its work thx brother 🙏
Thanks Kevin
🤩🤩🤩🤩 ty for making css awesome
Very beautiful.
Nice video will help me in my next Website 👍
Thanks for that, I didn't known about border-image
I use these to put 'Final Fantasy 7'-style borders around UI elements on my Twitch streams. They're great!
for gradient border i always use background: linear-gradient and changing border to transparent.
background:
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0) padding-box,
linear-gradient(to right, #9c20aa, #fb3570) border-box;
border: 10px solid transparent;
first linear-gradient is basically your background color to fill only the padding box while sitting on a second linear gradient which is the gradient that fills to the whole border area.
Hey quick question, How do you make the border show up inside the box? Like an inner frame of a Tarot Card? 🙏
@@Way_Of_The_Light I only know how to do it with solid colors with box-shadow inset... Or a negative outline-offset.. creating a pseudo element sortof works too(by making width and height smaller than the parent)...
@@Way_Of_The_Light You can have two borders actually. You can use outline as a second border around it.
I see, Thanks for the answers guys 🙏
wow >> you are amazing
Welcome to the styling side!!
Thanks 👍
You just saved me some serious design headache (Y)
css used to stress me out, this channel makes it much less scary and confusing
genius! thx a lot
The first 30 seconds are enough to make me feel oooooooooooooold
Hi Kevin, great video. I have a question, is it possible to do the last border and both sides?
Cool !! 💯💯💯
lol saved me hours with that mozilla border image generator
Very cool
Good stuff
I love it
Could you use container queries to make slice more dynamic?
I like that that CSS property now exists.
("that that" isn't a typo, it is weird grammar in English)
Thanks for the video. Good stuff. Would this be a good use case for throwing a loading "spinner" on a button? I played around a bit and think the Gradient Example 2 approach with an animation altering the deg would make it look like a loading bar and perfect for a button. Throw the loading class on the button when it is clicked, and remove that class when the process is finished.
yeah that's what i was thinking too, especially with example three with a rotate animation
I've been stuck trying to figure out an animated border-gradient with a Border radius while keeping a transparent background. I've seen ur animated border gradient video but with that method it looked like you need a 'background' for the card at the front to hide the gradient thats behind it.
Is there a way to make an animated border with round corners? The SVG videos gave me the impression the gradient cannot be done in the CSS only in HTML, am I understanding that right?
I wonder if you design straight in css and hrml or still use figma?
great explanation Kevin ♥
so could you provide us a tutorial about : circular progress border using CSS
We could do something fun with that!
@@KevinPowell thanks a lot for that
These videos should be paid
Hello! thanks for the video, very help full! which is the right size for an image not to pixel when using this property?
Here's a fun "highlight the corners" snip-it. Setup your own color and the transparent percents can tune how quick it fades out on each corner. The "to" keeps it pointed at the other corner if your container changes size.
border: 0.3rem solid;
border-image-source: linear-gradient(
to bottom right,
$color,
transparent 30%,
transparent 80%,
darken($color, 10%)
);
border-image-slice: 1;
Remember when border-radius wasn't a thing and everything had a gif border-image? Pepperidge farm remembers.
Can you please explain how it works for circular divs or images.
I think this is the only video about this subject in the internet
Sir, I would like to see you create a 2D intro with css, and by the way its because of you I loved css. Thank you for the amazing videos.
Informative..
How about the gradient border with radius? And transparent background also.
I've needed something akin to the radial gradient tip at the end, where you want something similar to 'mounting corners' in a photo album. Adjusting the stops to give a hard start to the transparency would be perfect!
This is brilliant, and very timely for a project I'm working on right now. However I'm struggling a little - I'm using a png with a design on a white background for border image, but my border seems to get a small gradient. I can't work out why or how to remove it. Any advice please?
Don't worry. I fixed it. Only took 2 hours! The gradient was a box shadow from the div above. Obvs really.
how to give border radius while using the linear gradient one?
wow nice.
If am using border gradient doesn't support border radius. Any solution for this i dont want background-image gradient with border radius.
This was great! I am curious however on how you'd mix this with adding a border radius as well. It seems that the two "fight" one another.
Yeah it's one or the other with border-image :)
@@KevinPowell Thank you for this video and for your response. Also, I was the guy who emailed you last week about this very topic. This channel is awesome!
right now if you want a round corner it would have to be included as part of the image. I have a github issue open with the CSSWG on making gradient border-image with work with border-radius.
4:24 - "I mucked up my bottom a little bit"
I do that from time to time - it's fine
How does this interact with border-radius, and how many of these properties are animatable?
dang, u r wizard
✨ magic ✨
Can you do a video on animating gradient borders
If you used "fill", would there be a lime green semicircle in the top left?
useful
Still looking forward to the day when border-image becomes compatible with border radius ;-;
nice
Just realized that I way overengineered gradient borders for my first client's website 😅
How do we use border-radius with a gradient border? Anyone got any idea or is it simply not possible (yet)?
Using border-image was pretty common before CSS3
Also known as a 9 slice on video games 🔥
How can I do the property of border-radius? when I give the border radius it effects the background color not linear-gradient border
No border radius with the images sadly, you'd have to set the corners of the image up to be rounded
@@KevinPowell but I am using linear gradient color for border, not image
how can we animate the linear gradient border , thank you for this i almost forgot how to use border and this video reminded me of it ^^
Because it's an image-source, just like a background-image, we can't animate it sadly. Or well, we could with @property and custom properties, but the support isn't very good.
@@KevinPowell Should be possible with JavaScript, right? Doesn't sound like a good idea, though.
Watching you makes me want to ditch tailwind and just use css
That just made my day 😅
How can we do animation on it
how to do it for rounded borders
Damn!
But how do you do it on rounded corners?
Lovely! 🎨
Now, how about we combine images, gradients, clipping/blending and pseudoelements, and we get photo cutouts for borders… 🤔
I did it with cut corners and a gradient awhile back, you could probably use the same technique with an image - th-cam.com/video/aW6qEAQSctY/w-d-xo.html
