How border-image-slice works

The 'border-image-source' property specifies the path to the image to be used as a border. It can be a URL, a gradient, or 'none'. The corners stay at the corners of your element, while edge slices are repeated or stretched to fill the borders. Using 'fill' preserves the middle slice as the element's background.
