npm install locale2Try as hard as possible to detect the client's language tag ("locale") in node or the browser. Browserify and Webpack friendly!
In 2009, IETF published RFC-5646, _"Tags for Identifying Languages,"_ in which "...describes the structure, content, construction, and semantics of language tags for use in cases where it is desirable to indicate the language used in an information object."
A language tag is composed from a sequence of one or more _"subtags"_, each of which refines or narrows the range of language identified by the overall tag. Subtags, in turn, are a sequence of alphanumeric characters (letters and digits), distinguished and separated from other subtags in a tag by a hyphen ("-", [Unicode] U+002D).
