Jekyll uses markdown by default as Markdown processor. However, when working with right-to-left cases there are edge cases not covered by kramdown. This plugin aims at fixing those gaps and provide a better experience for right-to-left users. So far, it only patches code blocks to appear left-to-right in a right-to-left contexts. There might be better ways for doing what it does currently, but this is what solved my problem while developing my personal website.
Append gem jekyll-markright to the plugins vector (formerly know as gems) of your website's _config.yml file. You can also put the jekyll-markright.rb file inside plugins directory of your website. You can install it from Rubygems too:
gem install jekyll-markright
Set it as preferred Markdown processor inside _config.yml file:
markdown: Markright
