Audit Areas
1. Document Language (WCAG 3.1.1/3.1.2)
<html>must have valid BCP 47langattribute- Inline content in different languages needs
langattribute
2. Text Direction
<html dir="rtl">for RTL languagesdir="auto"for user-generated content<bdi>for inline bidirectional isolation
3. RTL Layout
- Use logical CSS properties (
margin-inline-startnotmargin-left) - Directional icons flip in RTL; non-directional stay same

email,url,tel) needdir="ltr"on input
