How do I localize SwiftUI views and strings?

In SwiftUI, localizing views and strings is essential for creating applications that cater to different languages and cultures. You can achieve localization by using localized strings and adapting your user interface according to the user's preferred language.

Example of Localizing Strings in SwiftUI


    import SwiftUI

    struct ContentView: View {
        var body: some View {
            Text(NSLocalizedString("welcome_message", comment: "Welcome message for users"))
                .font(.largeTitle)
                .padding()
        }
    }
    

You would typically add your localized strings to a Localizable.strings file, where you define key-value pairs for different languages.

Steps to Localize SwiftUI Views

  1. Create a Localizable.strings file for each language you want to support.
  2. Add localized strings using key-value pairs.
  3. Use NSLocalizedString in your SwiftUI views to fetch the localized string.
