      },
    },
    repeatingLinearBorderGradients: theme => ({
      directions: theme('linearBorderGradients.directions'), // defaults to the same values as linearBorderGradients’ directions
      colors: theme('linearBorderGradients.colors'), // defaults to {}
      lengths: { // defaults to {}
        'sm': '25px',
        'md': '50px',
        'lg': '100px',
      },
    }),

    repeatingLinearBorderGradients: ['responsive'], // defaults to ['responsive']
  },
  plugins: [
    require('tailwindcss-border-gradients')(),
  ],
}

The plugin generates the following utilities:

/* configurable with the "linearBorderGradients" theme object */
.border-gradient-[direction-key]-[color-key] {
  border-image: linear-gradient([direction-value], [color-value-1], [color-value-2], [...]) 1;
}

/* configurable with the "repeatingLinearBorderGradients" theme object */
.border-gradient-[direction-key]-[color-key]-[length-key] {
  border-image: repeating-linear-gradient([direction-value], [color-value-1], [color-value-2], [...] [length-value]) 1;
}
