### Responsive design

<ResponsiveDesign element="p" property="text-align" defaultClass="text-left" featuredClass="text-center" />

### Using logical properties

Use the `rtl` variant to conditionally add styles for both right-to-left and left-to-right, when building multi-directional layouts:

```html
<!-- [!code classes:rtl:text-right] -->
<p class="text-left rtl:text-right">So I started to walk into the water...</p>
```

Alternatively, you can use the `text-start` and `text-end` logical utilities, to let the browser align the text either the left or right side based on the writing direction:
