RTL is certainly something I'm interested in supporting. I love the challenge. We have been involved in other large projects in the past with the requirement, so it's not completely foreign nor off our radar.
It's on my list, but... we will likely need to add to our UI team before we can tackle RTL support.

I would like to drop the RTL bomb.... 💣
I know that RTL languages (Hebrew, Arabic) are usually neglected by most software vendors due to probably less demand, and more complexity in UI terms - but I think that if the UI is thoughtfully prepared, it should be a matter of strapping a <body class='rtl' direction='rtl'> to it, and then it should be easy to support RTL (which of course entails having the lefthand sidebar on the right).
Whatever the future holds for this localization feature - if RTL support finds its way in, I am happy to assist (both in RTL terms, and if needed, in localization concepts and planning).

Well, I saw this bomb falling! 💥
From my experience, this would mean a complete rewrite of the CSS styling and many HTML. As you said yourself, even right sidebars may become left sidebars when RTL is in place. So I believe translation for LTR languages should be dealt in separate steps from actual RTL implementation. That's not just a matter of placing strings over placeholders, but a complete layout revamp.
One important aspect to have it well implemented and maintained is an actual audience to report the layout issues as they rise. :)
I mean, it would be worth its own dedicated issue.

Yeah, possibly.
From my experience - and the many days I spent dealing with such issues - I want to mention just a couple of key point that might help.
- Tables, columns, flexboxes, "float lefts" - are all automatically organized in reverse order once wrapped inside a container with
direction='rtl'- so dealing with this is usually just minor adjustments. - The other aspect is CSS elements that received explicit float, align, or uneven padding/margin. For these, I usually do something like this (SCSS):
.col {
.ltr & { float:left; }
.rtl & { float:right; }
}Anyways - when the time comes, give me a call.

This should be really easy by using CSS logical properties as Retype is using utility classes. Even there are tools to automatically convert a CSS code to logical properties. You'll lose IE support though.

Retype v3.0 will include support for changing the interface language. Currently 24 languages are supported.
See the following docs for the translations:

The source repo is available at:

RTL is not support. Hopefully one day.
