Request for Internationalization (i18n) Support

Summary

I would like to request the addition of internationalization (i18n) support in this Ant Design (antd) ReactJS open-source project. Implementing i18n will make the project more accessible to a global audience by allowing it to support multiple languages.

Description

Current State:

  • The project currently only supports the default language (e.g., English).
  • There is no infrastructure or tooling in place for adding multiple language support.

Proposed Enhancement:

  • Integrate an i18n library (such as react-intl, react-i18next, or any other preferred i18n library).
  • Externalize all user-facing strings into separate translation files (e.g., JSON or JS files) for different languages.
  • Provide documentation on how to add new translations and switch languages within the application.

Benefits

  • Accessibility: Allowing users to interact with the application in their preferred language enhances user experience.
  • Global Reach: Expanding the potential user base by supporting multiple languages.
  • Community Contribution: Enable community members to contribute translations for different languages.

Suggested Libraries

  • react-intl: Provides React components and an API to format dates, numbers, and strings, including pluralization and handling translations.
  • react-i18next: Powerful internationalization framework for React/React Native, providing all the necessary tools for translating your application.
