ICU4X is a new project whose objective is to solve the needs of clients who wish to provide client-side i18n for their products in resource-constrained environments.
ICU4X, or "ICU for X", will be built from the start with several key design constraints:
- Small and modular code.
- Pluggable locale data.
- Availability and ease of use in multiple programming languages.
- Written by i18n experts to encourage best practices.
ICU4X will provide an ECMA-402-compatible API surface in the target client-side platforms, including the web platform, iOS, Android, WearOS, WatchOS, Flutter, and Fuchsia, supported in programming languages including Rust, JavaScript, Objective-C, Java, Dart, and C++.
More information about the project can be found in the docs subdirectory. To see technical information on how to use ICU4X, visit our API docs.
