# Rules

The `dir="auto"` attribute should be applied on "bidifiable" tags as per the following rules:

- Only apply on "bidifiable" tags.
- All top-level elements
- All child elements except the first child

Bidifiable elements can be defined as per the use case requirements (not yet implemented).
The default bidifiable tags are: `div`, `h1`, `h2`, `h3`, `h4`, `h5`, `h6`, `p`, `ul`, `ol`, `blockquote`.

Notice that `li` elements shouldn't get `dir=auto` otherwise, the list appearance gets damaged.

As a complementary step, CSS styles should use [logical properties](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_logical_properties_and_values). Here are a few examples:

```css
/* Physical properties */
text-align: left;
padding-right: 10px;
border-left: 1px;
/* Logical properties */
text-align: start;
padding-inline-end: 10px;
border-inline-start: 1px;
```
