Take your Rails App Abroad with I18n
Make your Ruby on Rails app multi-lingual! I'll go over how to get started with translations using the I18n gem. We'll configure translations using a YAML file, determine a user's locale, specify default values for when a translation is not defined, and interpolate variables into translation strings. Throughout, we will see how the I18n gem improves the maintainability of view code while multiplying the size of our user base.
