CSS: Using the current text color for other color properties

There is a kinda secret, yet well supported CSS feature called currentColor. It's like a special CSS variable that has been supported in almost all browsers for almost all time (see linked Caniuse).

Usage

The currentColor value can be used in CSS to indicate the current value of color should be used. A common use case is setting a border color:

Copya.ghost
  color: white
  border: 1px solid currentColor
  &:hover
    color: red // Border color will change as well 

Note that in many cases, you can simply omit the color to achieve the same result (i.e. in the example, simply write border: 1px solid).
