on Nov 06, 2017Future Author's note: this article entails details of the legacy Hygraph system. Here is where you can find details on the current content-localization possibilities.
Today marks the completion of our latest milestone: Content Localization!
You can now choose between a whopping 239 locales from Afrikaans to Zulu, but that's not the end. You are also able to define custom locales for whatever use-case you can think of: Programming languages, a klingon ? blog about fashion - you name it!
All you have to do to get started is have a project in trial (or you're always welcome to purchase a plan that includes localization ?). Then you can open up your project settings and set your locales under "Content Localization".
The complete guide to bringing translations to your project can be found in our docs.
We are preparing our public roadmap to keep you updated on our latest development and upcoming features.
Have a good one! ?
Content Finder (Beta) helps you find any content in seconds across models and locales so you can stop digging and save time. Just hit CMD+K and jump straight to what you need.
Scattered tags and inconsistent categories make content hard to manage. With Taxonomies, you can classify content using shared, hierarchical tags that bring order, consistency, and speed as projects grow.
With Variants, you can create and manage personalized content at scale, directly within your content schema. Build tailored experiences for different user segments without cluttering your content repository.
