The margin-inline-end CSS property defines the logical inline end margin of an element, which maps to a physical margin depending on the element's writing mode, directionality, and text orientation. In other words, it corresponds to the margin-top, margin-right, margin-bottom or margin-left property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

/* <length> values */ margin-inline-end: 10px;   /* An absolute length */ margin-inline-end: 1em;    /* relative to the text size */ margin-inline-end: 5%;     /* relative to the nearest block container's width */  /* Keyword values */ margin-inline-end: auto;  /* Global values */ margin-inline-end: inherit; margin-inline-end: initial; margin-inline-end: revert; margin-inline-end: unset;
