Localization By Template

This page demonstrates localization by "localized component template". There are two templates for this page:
The current template is the second one. Using the current locale, we get:
Locale code
en_US
Locale name
English (United States)
A date
March 29, 2024
A number
-1,234.56
The supported locales are defined in AppModule. Our AppModule has 3.

Choose one: English (United States) , English (United Kingdom) , French .
UTF-8 File Encoding
For a seamless experience when working with non-ASCII characters in properties files, it's probably best to set the file to UTF-8 encoded.
In Eclipse, right-click on the file, choose Properties > Resource > Text file encoding > Other > UTF-8.
