  2. Create a portals folder and implement the common, user portal, dev portal, etc. namespaces.
  3. Create other folders such as docs, etc. and place the necessary translations.
  4. Create a meta.ts file and add all the necessary metadata regarding the language bundle.
import { LocaleMeta } from "../../models";

export const meta: LocaleMeta = {
    code: "en-GB",
    flag: "gb",
    name: "English (United Kingdom)",
    namespaces: [ "common", "devPortal", "myAccount" ]
};
  1. Export the bundle from the index.
import * as portals from "./portals";
import { LocaleBundle } from "../../models";
import { meta } from "./meta";

export const EN_GB: LocaleBundle = {
    meta,
    resources: {
        portals
    }
};

Adding a new language during runtime.

  1. Create a folder with the language's ISO code inside the distribution directory. ex: For Dev Portal, the i18n bundle will be saved under resources/i18n. Create a folder fr to store french language the translations.
  2. Copy the translated JSON files.
  3. Update the meta.json file.
{
    "fr": {
        "code": "fr",
        "flag": "fr",
        "name": "French (France)",
        "namespaces": ["common", "devPortal"],
