#ANDROID STUDIO 3.0.1 CREATE FOLDER ANDROID#

One thing to note here is if the Android cannot find a language localeвЂ™s file or just a particular String in the locale-specific file, it will switch either completely or just for that specific String to the default English Strings file. The application just picked the locale from the device and used that language in the app as well. The best thing about this was that we actually didnвЂ™t have to do any configuration for this in our app or on our device. This was the simplest demonstration of an internationalization support of our app. Of course, the default locale shown above reflects the English language being used. Trying the applicationДЇor now, we will run our application multiple times and will only change the deviceвЂ™s locale so that app can show changes in the locale: We have also added the same file ( strings.xml)В in all the three folders.

the values-jaВ directory is for the Japanese language.

the values-fr directory is for the French language.

the valuesВ directoryВ is for default language, i.e.

See how there are three, similarly named folders for values:

To give our localization process a kick start for the three supported languages, we will create some new folders and files in the res folder in our project structure.

This what it looks like when using Android Studio Version 3.0.1, which is what we used for this tutorial. NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here they belong We also have a root level dependency adle file and here are the contents of the file: // Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.Д¬lasspath ':gradle:3.0.1' Implementation ':constraint-layout:1.0.2'ДЄndroidTestImplementation ':runner:1.0.1'ДЄndroidTestImplementation '.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.1' Implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: )

ProguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro' TestInstrumentationRunner '.AndroidJUnitRunner' When we make a project using Android Studio, it automatically adds the dependencies it needs to set up a project.ДЇor the sake of keeping this guide simple вЂ“ you might also have different versions of dependencies and SDK versions вЂ“ here is our app level adle file for this project: apply plugin: ''ДЄpplicationId '' In Android, dependencies are managed using the Gradle build tool. We named our application вЂњAndroidInternationalizationвЂќ and it will be supporting three languages. LetвЂ™s make a new project in Android Studio as below: This will change theВ applicationвЂ™s language too. Inside the application, we will allow the user to change the locale for theВ application as well.When a user opens our app, the app will automatically get the deviceвЂ™s set locale and set the appвЂ™s language to be the same locale.We will try to keep the project simple and try to build two functionalities which are complementary to each other when it comes to creating an excellent and localized user experience for the end user: Of course, we will be demonstrating this with only a limited number of languages in this demo, three to be exact: English, Japanese and French. The Android Studio IDEВ will get the user locale, set on the device and automatically also set the language of the application to be the same. Check out the guide Knowing the projectДЇor this lesson, we will be making an Android application using the Android Studio IDE. Explore why app translation can be key to your global business expansion and follow our best practices.
