color libraries don't apply to borders?

I would like to use some of the vivid color library colors as border colors, but apparently borders cannot use them. The various color libraries seem to work only as background colors, not as border colors, is this correct?

What's a "color library"?

You have a range of over 16 million colors to choose from in CSS

Seriously? W3-CSS color libraries. https://www.w3schools.com/w3css/w3css_color_libraries.asp

You didn't specify that you were talking about W3.CSS. Since this is in the CSS forum I thought you were talking about plain CSS. I don't use CSS frameworks, myself, so I haven't really looked at W3.CSS. If there's something the framework doesn't offer, you can write some of your own CSS to override it.

That is such an impractical way of using specific class for specific color, i doubt any professional would ever consider looking or using it.

Consider multiple page using that library, and in future you want to change the theme colour, you have to change ALL of those specific color classes on ALL elements in ALL pages to the alternative theme colour?

Whereas you could just set up primary, secondary etc colour classes, adjust the colours to new theme colour, and bam! Instantly the changes are made.
