+
+We provide a set of out of style functions out of the box through `@codecademy/gamut-styles` that are standardized throughout all of our components. These props are strongly typed and can be included as necessary on any styled component.
+
+System props have a few facets that are important to note:
+
+- They can some times represent multiple properties.
+- They may be restricted to specific token scales but will always have access to global css values like `initial` and `none`.
+- They may have a function that transforms the given value into a standardized value (e.g. `width={.5}` => `width: 50%`)
+
+We've grouped these into a few main groups that affect simliar behaviors: `layout`, `space`, `color`, `border`, `background`, `typography`, `positioning`, `grid`, `flex`, `shadow`.
+
+You may import these groups directly from `gamut-styles`.
+
+```tsx
+import { variance } from '@codecademy/variance';
+import { system } from '@codecademy/gamut-styles';
+
+const ExampleContainer = styled.div(
+  variance.compose(system.layout, system.positioning)
+);
+
+<ExampleContainer position="absolute" width="50px" height="50px" />;
+```
+
+Each system prop has 3 important features:
+
+- `properties`: Any number of CSS Properties this prop is responsible for.
+- `scale`: A set of values that determines valid inputs for each prop based on the selected theme and that theme's typing (e.g. if the `lxStudio` theme is being used, a scale of `colors` will restrict to the `lxStudio` theme's colors). These are generally aliases for more verbose or opaque CSS properties allowing you to specify a human readable name in your props. If a prop doesn't have a scale that means it accepts all valid `CSSType` values as props, however if it does have a scale it will only accept global values and keys of the provided scale.
+- `transform`: A function that changes the prop / scale value prior to adding it to the stylehseet. This allows us to add / change units for properties like `width` and `height`. Or ensure extra defaults or fallbacks are added dynamically.

+## What are CSS logical properties?
+
+CSS logical properties are a modern approach to styling that adapts to the writing mode and text direction of your content, rather than being tied to physical screen directions. More information can be found on[MDN: CSS Logical Properties](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_logical_properties_and_values)
+
+### Physical Properties (Traditional)
+
+Physical properties reference the physical dimensions of the viewport. For example:
+
+- `margin-left`, `margin-right`, `margin-top`, `margin-bottom`
+- `padding-left`, `padding-right`, `padding-top`, `padding-bottom`
+
+These work well for left-to-right (LTR) languages but require manual overrides for right-to-left (RTL) languages like Arabic or Hebrew.
+
+### Logical Properties (Modern)
+
+Logical properties reference the flow of content:
+
+- **Inline axis** (text direction): `margin-inline-start`, `margin-inline-end`
+- **Block axis** (reading direction): `margin-block-start`, `margin-block-end`
+
+## Using `useLogicalProperties` in Gamut
+
+Gamut supports both physical and logical CSS properties through the `useLogicalProperties` prop on `GamutProvider`. This allows you to choose which mode your application uses. By default, `useLogicalProperties` is set to `true`, meaning Gamut will use logical CSS properties. If you want to use physical CSS properties, you have to set `useLogicalProperties` to `false`.
+
+### Affected Props
+
+Here are some examples of how physical and logical properties are affected by the `useLogicalProperties` prop:
+
+<TokenTable
+  idKey="prop"
+  columns={[
+    {
+      key: 'prop',
+      name: 'Prop',

+          </>
+        )),
+    },

+      prop: 'pb',
+      physical: ['padding-bottom'],
+      logical: ['padding-block-end'],
+    },

+    </>
+  }

+
+## Previewing in Storybook
+
+You can toggle between logical and physical properties in Storybook using the **LogicalProps** toolbar button:
+
+<ImageWrapper
+  src="./meta/toolbar.png"
+  alt="The Storybook toolbar with the LogicalProps toggle highlighted."
+  height="auto"
+/>
+
+This allows you to preview how components render with either property mode without changing any code.

-We provide a set of out of style functions out of the box through `@codecademy/gamut-styles` that are standardized throughout all of our components. These props are strongly typed and can be included as necessary on any styled component.
-
-System props have a few facets that are important to note:
-
-- They can some times represent multiple properties.
-- They may be restricted to specific token scales but will always have access to global css values like `initial` and `none`.
-- They may have a function that transforms the given value into a standardized value (e.g. `width={.5}` => `width: 50%`)
-
-We've grouped these into a few main groups that affect simliar behaviors: `layout`, `space`, `color`, `border`, `background`, `typography`, `positioning`, `grid`, `flex`, `shadow`.
-
-You may import these groups directly from `gamut-styles`.
-
-```tsx
-import { variance } from '@codecademy/variance';
-import { system } from '@codecademy/gamut-styles';
-
-const Box = styled.div(variance.compose(system.layout, system.positioning));
-
-<Box position="absolute" width="50px" height="50px" />;
-```
-
-Each system prop has 3 important features:
-
-- `properties`: Any number of CSS Properties this prop is responsible for.
-- `scale`: A set of values that determines valid inputs for each prop (e.g. a scale of `colors` will restrict to only theme colors). These are generally aliases for more verbose or opaque css properties allowing you to specify a human readable name in your props. If a prop doesn't have a scale that means it accepts all valid CSSType values as props, however if it does have a scale it will only accept global values and keys of the provided scale.
-- `transform`: A function that changes the prop / scale value prior to adding it to the stylehseet. This allows us to add / change units for properties like `width` and `height`. Or ensure extra defaults or fallbacks are added dynamically.
