Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
The dir read-only property of the Notification interface indicates the text direction of the notification, as specified in the dir option of the Notification() constructor.
Value
A string specifying the text direction. Possible values are:
auto-
adopts the browser's language setting behavior (the default.)
ltr-

rtl-

Note: Most browsers seem to ignore explicit ltr and rtl settings, and just go with the browser-wide setting.
Examples
The following snippet fires a notification; a simple options object is created, then the notification is fired using the Notification() constructor.
const options = {
body: "Your code submission has received 3 new review comments.",
dir: "rtl",
};
const n = new Notification("New review activity", options);
console.log(n.dir); // "rtl"
