You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals
- Category: Mobile & Frontend Development
- Use case: Internationalization (i18n) Implementation
- Source task:
  - Implement i18n for a {{framework}} application targeting {{list_languages}}. Include:
  - 1. i18n library selection ({{react_i18next_vue_i18n_next_intl}} : recommend for the stack)
  - 2. message file structure and key naming conventions
  - 3. plural handling and interpolation
  - 4. date, number, and currency formatting using Intl API
  - 5. RTL (right-to-left) language support
  - 6. lazy loading of translation files per language
  - 7. testing strategy for i18n : what to test and how

# Goal
Library recommendation, message file structure, plural/interpolation handling, Intl formatting, RTL support, lazy loading, and i18n testing strategy.

# Constraints
- Produce a complete, usable first draft in one response.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
Library recommendation, message file structure, plural/interpolation handling, Intl formatting, RTL support, lazy loading, and i18n testing strategy.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When adding multi-language support to an application or planning for it from the start.

PRO TIP

Extract all strings from day one even for a single-language app β€” retrofitting i18n into a large codebase is one of the most painful frontend migrations.
