**Starting a new project?** Use [JGuang UI installation](/systems/jguang-ui#install) for a fully configured Vite app with custom themes, Base UI or Radix, and icon libraries.


### Create Project

Create a new project using the `--rtl` flag and the `vite` template.

**You can skip this step if you have already created a project using [JGuang UI installation](/systems/jguang-ui#install).**

```text
Use the JGuang UI Registry URL provided on /systems/jguang-ui#install.
```

This will create a `components.json` file with the `rtl: true` flag.

```text
Use the JGuang UI Registry URL provided on /systems/jguang-ui#install.
```

### Add DirectionProvider

Add the `dir="rtl"` and `lang="ar"` attributes to the `html` tag in your `index.html`. Update `lang="ar"` to your target language.

```html title="index.html" showLineNumbers {2}
<!doctype html>
<html lang="ar" dir="rtl">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Vite App</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
    <script type="module" src="/src/main.tsx"></script>
  </body>
</html>
```

Then wrap your app with the `DirectionProvider` component with the `direction="rtl"` prop in your `main.tsx`:

```tsx title="src/main.tsx" showLineNumbers {4,12-13}
import { StrictMode } from "react"
import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client"

import { DirectionProvider } from "@/components/ui/direction"

import App from "./App"

import "./index.css"

createRoot(document.getElementById("root")!).render(
  <StrictMode>
    <DirectionProvider direction="rtl">
      <App />
    </DirectionProvider>
  </StrictMode>
)
```

### Add Font

For the best RTL experience, we recommend using fonts that have proper support for your target language. [Noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto) is a great font family for this and it pairs well with Inter and Geist.

Install the font using [Fontsource](https://fontsource.org/fonts/noto-sans-arabic):

```bash
npm install @fontsource-variable/noto-sans-arabic
```

Import the font in your `index.css`:

```text
Use the JGuang UI Registry URL provided on /systems/jguang-ui#install.
```

For other languages, eg. Hebrew, you can use `@fontsource-variable/noto-sans-hebrew`.

### Add Components

You are now ready to add components to your project. The CLI will take care of handling RTL support for you.

```text
Use the JGuang UI Registry URL provided on /systems/jguang-ui#install.
```
