In today's interconnected world, it is crucial that the applications we create function seamlessly across diverse languages and regions to serve a global user base effectively. However, many projects often overlook the importance of globalization, which can result in expensive and time-consuming efforts to retrofit the application at a later stage.

During this workshop, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of the significance of globalization and internationalization. You will learn the fundamentals of correctly coding numbers, date-time formats, and other variables to support multiple locales. Additionally, you will discover how to adapt the text that users encounter, which involves preparing resource files, refactoring strings into these resources, and applying appropriate string globalization techniques.

This hands-on workshop is designed to provide you with the necessary skills and knowledge to implement globalization in your work project within a 3-hour timeframe. Please ensure you bring your laptop and any relevant work projects, as you will immediately apply what you learn during the workshop to kickstart the work that will be continued back at your workplace.

You will also acquire insights into streamlining the process of string translations, making it fast, easy, and cost-effective. Finally, I will guide you in configuring the .editorConfig file to identify and resolve issues efficiently.

By the conclusion of this workshop, you will be well-prepared to cater to users from various countries, enhancing the accessibility and usability of your applications. It's important to note that this workshop is application-agnostic, and the knowledge you gain can be applied to any application type.
