Frequently Asked Questions about dotnet-localization

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement .NET localization for multiple cultures using resource files?▼

.NET localization manages .resx files, JSON resources, and source generators to provide compile-time safety for multiple cultures. You configure IStringLocalizer to adapt application content for specific languages and regions.

What is the best way to format dates, numbers, and currencies for specific cultures in .NET?▼

Culture-specific formatting in .NET uses CultureInfo standards to handle dates, numbers, and currencies according to locale. This ensures dates appear as jour/mois/année for French users while maintaining correct regional formats.

Does .NET localization work with Blazor, MAUI, WPF, and Uno Platform?▼

.NET localization integrates with Blazor, MAUI, Uno Platform, and WPF for seamless UI adaptation. It provides culture-specific formatting and right-to-left text direction guidance across these frameworks.

How do I handle right-to-left text direction and pluralization in internationalized .NET apps?▼

RTL support and pluralization in .NET apps use CLDR-compliant pluralization engines and right-to-left text direction guidance. This ensures correct UI rendering and robust plural form translation for various languages.

Can I use JSON resources instead of .resx files for .NET internationalization?▼

.NET internationalization supports JSON resources alongside .resx files and source generators. This enables compile-time safety while allowing flexible resource management for global application content.
