Usage

import { flexbox, position } from 'styled-system';
import { direction } from 'styled-system-direction';

const Flex = styled.div`
  display: flex;
  ${flexbox}
  ${position}
  ${direction}
`

function App() {
  return (
    // A parent should have dir prop,
    // in a real app, you would add it to the html tag
    <ParentComponent dir='rtl'>
      <Flex
        position="absolute"
        dirRight={0}
        dirBorderRight='1px solid red'
      ></Box>
    </Flex>
  );
};

dirRight and dirBorderRight will create 2 css classes that will look like this:

[dir="ltr"] .dLtAKS {
    right: 0px;
    border-right: 1px solid red;
}

[dir="rtl"] .dLtAKS {
    left: 0px;
    border-left: 1px solid red;
}

As you can see the css selectors targets the element dependending on the dir prop of the parent.
