A general guide on bidirectional text

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

MDN does not include much documentation about Bidirectional Text. Here are some resources:

Do you have anything more you want to share?

We have a few pages that cover writing modes like:

• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/direction
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/writing-mode
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/unicode-bidi
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/dir

I see we already have this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development/Core/Styling_basics/Handling_different_text_directions so making it more prominent / visible can be another solution.
