People then keep the IDEs in English? Or the UI is set up to the right-to-left flow, only the text blocks with the code itself are left-to-right?


My Iranian coworker leaves everything in English for what it’s worth. I can ask her what she would prefer and why?


we keep it in LTR although some prefer to set up the IDE for their preferred latin based non english language. it's because some software messes RTL and the translations for the technical keywords in arabic are not standardized. For example I can't tell you what "Refactoring" would be translated to in arabic
