NSLocalizedString

NSLocalizedString is an API used in iOS and macOS development to support localization of strings in applications. It allows developers to provide translations and adapt text for different languages and regions.

Does Swift provide any built-in localization features?

Yes, Swift does provide built-in localization features that allow developers to easily adapt their app to different languages and regions. Localization is the process of adapting an app to different languages, cultural norms, and regional preferences. In Swift, localization is achieved through the use of the NSLocalizedString macro and the Localizable.strings file. By using NSLocalizedString, developers can specify a key that corresponds to a localized string in the Localizable.strings file. At runtime, the NSLocalizedString macro will return the appropriate localized string based on the user’s language setting. This makes it easy to provide multilingual support in Swift apps.
