Internationalization for Next.js. ## Features Internationalization (i18n) is an essential part of the user experience, therefore `next-intl` gives you all the parts you need to get language nuances right. - 🌟 **ICU message syntax**: Localize your messages with interpolation, cardinal & ordinal plurals, enum-based label selection and rich text. - 📅 **Dates, times & numbers**: Apply appropriate formatting without worrying about server/client differences like time zones. - ✅ **Type-safe**: Speed up development with autocompletion for message keys and catch typos early with compile-time checks. - 💡 **Hooks-based API**: Learn a single API that can be used across your code base to turn translations into plain strings or rich text. - 🚀 **Next.js-native and performance-obsessed**: App Router, Server Components, static rendering—pick the right tool for the right job, next-intl works everywhere. - 🌍 **Internationalized routing**: Provide unique pathnames per language and optionally localize pathnames for search engine optimization. ## What does it look like? ```jsx // UserProfile.tsx import {useTranslations} from 'next-intl'; export default function UserProfile({user}) { const t = useTranslations('UserProfile'); return (

{t('title', {firstName: user.firstName})}

{t('membership', {memberSince: user.memberSince})}

{t('followers', {count: user.numFollowers})}

); } ``` ```js // en.json { "UserProfile": { "title": "{firstName}'s profile", "membership": "Member since {memberSince, date, short}", "followers": "{count, plural, ↵ =0 {No followers yet} ↵ =1 {One follower} ↵ other {# followers} ↵ }" } } ``` ### [→ Read the docs](https://next-intl.dev)
