# Direction and Language The PWA dir and lang parameters. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) can be tailored for different languages and writing directions through the use of the `dir` and `lang` parameters in the HTML tag. By properly setting the `dir` and `lang` parameters, you ensure better user experience, accessibility, and potentially improved SEO for your PWA. Please note that those values should be in accordance with the ones set as `` tag attributes. ```html ``` ### The `dir` Parameter The `dir` parameter specifies the text directionality of the content in your PWA. It can have one of three values: * `ltr`: Left-to-right, which is used for languages that are read from the left to the right (like English). * `rtl`: Right-to-left, for languages read from the right to the left (like Arabic or Hebrew). * `auto`: Automatically determines the direction based on the content. Example usage in HTML: ### The `lang` Parameter The `lang` parameter declares the default language of the text in the page. This is important for accessibility tools and search engines. ### Configuration {% code title="/config/packages/pwa.yaml" lineNumbers="true" %} ```yaml pwa: manifest: enabled: true dir: "ltr" lang: "en" ``` {% endcode %}
