# Set text direction for RTL languages

Without proper dir attributes, RTL text displays incorrectly, UI elements appear backwards, and screen readers announce content in the wrong order.

## Quick Reference

- Set `dir="rtl"` on <html> for Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu
- Use `dir="auto"` for user-generated content
- Combine with CSS logical properties (inline-start, inline-end)
- Test UI mirroring for navigation, icons, and layouts
- Use bidi isolation such as `<bdi>` for inline mixed-direction user content
