CSS Value: currentColor

-

There are a large number of nuanced and mostly unheard of CSS value types, but today we are going to focus on currentColor. So what is the currentColor value type anyway?

-
-

The currentColor value type will apply the existing color value to other properties like background-color, etc.

-

See it in action

-

Let’s assume with have a single div with the following properties:

-
div {
-    color: dodgerblue;
-}
-
-

If we wanted to use that same color for other properties on elements inside that initial div, it’s simple - we just need to call currentColor like so:

-
div {
-    color: dodgerblue;
-}
-
-div header {
-    background-color: currentColor;
-}
-
-div a {
-    border-bottom: 1px solid currentColor;
-}
-
-

Sidenote: If you re-declare the default color property further along in your CSS, the currentColor value will update according to the last color set.

-

And that’s it. Best of all, this value type is supported across all major browsers!
