What languages does Uwazi support?

Uwazi can support any ISO 639 language. This means that the interface can be translated into any ISO 639 language, and users can upload documents in any languages.

However, not all the functionalities are available for every language. For example:

• We currently do not provide right-to-left interface support for Arabic and other languages.
• Full text searches do not take into account stemming, stopwords, and some other language-specific functionality. There is more information below on which languages are supported with full text search functionality.
