# Add support for right-to-left scripts

Use the [mapbox-gl-rtl-text](https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-rtl-text) plugin to support right-to-left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew.

By setting the `lazy` parameter to `true`, the plugin is only loaded when the map first encounters Hebrew or Arabic text.

Mapbox Studio loads this plugin by default.

> Example code:

**JavaScript**

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Add support for right-to-left scripts</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1,maximum-scale=1,user-scalable=no">

<script src="https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v3.28.1/mapbox-gl.js"></script>
<style>
body { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
#map { position: absolute; top: 0; bottom: 0; width: 100%; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="map"></div>

<script>
    mapboxgl.setRTLTextPlugin(
        'https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/plugins/mapbox-gl-rtl-text/v0.3.0/mapbox-gl-rtl-text.js',
        null,
        true // Lazy load the plugin
    );

    const map = new mapboxgl.Map({
        // TO MAKE THE MAP APPEAR YOU MUST
        // ADD YOUR ACCESS TOKEN FROM
        // https://account.mapbox.com
        accessToken: 'YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN',
        container: 'map',
        // Choose from Mapbox's core styles, or make your own style with Mapbox Studio
        style: 'mapbox://styles/mapbox/standard',
        center: [44.3763, 33.2788],
        zoom: 11
    });
</script>

</body>
</html>
```

**React**

```jsx
import React, { useEffect, useRef } from 'react';
import * as mapboxgl from 'mapbox-gl/esm';

import 'mapbox-gl/dist/mapbox-gl.css';

const MapboxExample = () => {
  const mapContainerRef = useRef();
  const mapRef = useRef();

  useEffect(() => {
    mapboxgl.setRTLTextPlugin(
      'https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/plugins/mapbox-gl-rtl-text/v0.3.0/mapbox-gl-rtl-text.js',
      null,
      true
    );

    mapRef.current = new mapboxgl.Map({
      // TO MAKE THE MAP APPEAR YOU MUST
      // ADD YOUR ACCESS TOKEN FROM

      center: [44.3763, 33.2788],
      zoom: 11
    });

    return () => {
      mapRef.current.remove();
    };
  }, []);

  return <div id="map" ref={mapContainerRef} style={{ height: '100%' }}></div>;
};

export default MapboxExample;
