Description  

The border-inline-start-width CSS property defines the width of the logical inline start border of an element, which maps to a physical border width depending on the element's writing mode, directionality, and text orientation. It corresponds to the border-top-widthborder-right-widthborder-bottom-width, or border-left-width property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

It relates to border-block-start-width, border-block-end-width, and border-inline-end-width, which define the other border widths of the element.
