Vertical rule

Use the custom vertical rule helper to create vertical dividers like the `<hr>` element.

How it works

Vertical rules are inspired by the <hr> element, allowing you to create vertical dividers in common layouts. They’re styled just like <hr> elements:

  • They’re 1px wide
  • They have min-height of 1em
  • Their color is set via currentColor and opacity

Customize them with additional styles as needed.

Example

html
