Adapting your spreadsheet application for different locales helps to make it accessible and user friendly to a global audience.

In spreadsheet controls, localization refers to adapting the user interface and functionality to different languages and cultural contexts. This involves translating static text like menu labels and buttons, formatting dates and numbers according to regional conventions, and even adjusting features like formula syntax to match users' expectations.

Several Angular spreadsheet controls support localization including:

  • SpreadJS by MESCIUS (formerly GrapeCity) enables developers to streamline localization with rich formatting options, multi-language support, and built-in translation tools for Angular spreadsheets.
