Can LocalizeJs offer a plug in to translate date/time and number format?

almost 2 years ago by Haeryn Kim

Date, time strings such as (mm/dd/yyyy > dd/mm/yyyy, June 15 (en-US), AM/PM strings, etc.) and numbers ($5,000.00 vs $5.000,00) need to be localized by country. Does LocalizeJs have an out of the box solution for this?

Good question Haeryn!

Localize does offer a couple of options for working with these types of content, but since the localization of this content is so country-specific and complex, we typically recommend using a dedicated third-party library instead. You can read more in our Converting dates, numbers, and currency help doc.

Hope that helps!
