Contributions summary:Arash's contributions center around adding Persian (Farsi) language support to the FreeScout help desk application. This involved modifying CSS files to accommodate right-to-left (RTL) text direction, adding configuration options for RTL locales, and implementing a method to determine if the current locale is RTL. Further, the user added Yekan font to the style of locale-fa in `style-rtl.css` to enable Persian support. This work directly enables users to use FreeScout in the Persian language.
