Flutter is Google's hot, up-and-coming, cross-platform mobile development framework written in Dart. In this article, we'll explore how to internationalize and localize a Flutter app by using a relatively simple demo. We'll use Dart's intl and and intl_translation libraries to wire up language files to our app. We'll work with simple translation strings, complex plurals, and dates. Then we'll sit back and relax as Flutter takes care of locale layout direction and its own localized Widgets for us. Let's get cooking.
Python Babel is a well-known solution that assists in internationalizing and localizing Python applications, with an emphasis on web-based applications. If you are working with dates and times, numbers or getttext translations then it will help you automate part of the process. In this tutorial, we are going to explore the advanced usages of this library with practical examples.
Today we are going to explore another internationalization library in Go called go-i18n. It's a library that can help by providing a convenient API over some common localization tasks from organizing translation in files up to automating procedures.
React's native mobile app cousin, React Native, is changing the way we approach native mobile app development. We can now build native mobile apps with React in JavaScript, achieving performance that's much higher than hybrid apps. We can also cover both Android and iOS with a single code base, often needing very little device-specific forking in our apps. One problem that isn't widely covered yet is i18n-izing and localizing our React Native applications. In part 2 of this two-part series we'll use the i18n library we built in part 1, and build out our app's i18n-ized screens and functionality.
