localization-guidelines

What problem does it solve?

Provides a clear, actionable standard for building locale-aware UI and services so teams avoid hardcoded locale checks, layout breakage in right-to-left markets, and inconsistent currency/date/unit formatting across dealer and customer experiences.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Attribute-driven rules: Emphasizes checking localeAttributes (textDirection, currency, units, date/time patterns) instead of branching on locale strings to future-proof code.
• Layout & formatting guidance: Specifies logical layout properties, icon mirroring rules, and UI responsibility for formatting numbers, currencies, dates, and distances.
• API reference & resolution: Directs teams to the dealer locale attributes API and defines resolution/fallback chains for dealer, advisor, and customer scenarios.
• Use case: Audit a checkout component to ensure RTL flipping, correct currency symbol/placement, and date/time patterns are driven by dealer locale attributes.

Quick Start

Use the localization-guidelines skill to audit a UI component for RTL layout, currency placement, and date/time formatting against the localeAttributes API.
