Abstract
In this chapter, you will learn how to translate your application into multiple languages. Supporting more than one language is essential to the success of an online business. For example, tens of millions of Spanish-speaking Internet users are all potential customers, and making your website accessible to these people will most likely increase your sales. Supporting a new language usually means a lot of extra work, but we’ll show you how to do it easily with the help of a Rails plugin called Globalize.
