Arabic & RTL localisation
Not a translation bolted onto an English layout.
Most Arabic versions of Western software are visibly an afterthought: mirrored layouts that break, English typography stretched around Arabic script, and numbers running the wrong way.
We build both directions as first-class from the start, because we work in both languages daily. This site is itself an example — every page exists in both, and neither reads like a translation.
What it covers
- Right-to-left layouts built with logical properties, not mirrored hacks
- Arabic typography with typefaces chosen for screen reading
- Correct handling of numbers, dates, currency and mixed-script text
- Content structured so both languages stay editable in one place
- Translation of interface copy, not machine output
