Our verdict
3/5 out of 5
Passed the cut
CSS Border Gradient takes Tally dark: deep navy panels with faint mint-edged gradient borders, Fraunces headlines over Manrope on the landing and Inter on the dashboard, with mint, amber and coral accents. The dashboard is clean and colorful without getting loud. Pick it if you want a polished dark product with a soft glow.

Observations
- the serif-plus-green headline style still echoes the default, only in the dark
- the gradient borders are subtle enough to disappear on dim screens
