## What it is
A React Native library providing a toolbox for app localization, exposing device locale, language detection, and related i18n utilities. It supports iOS, Android, macOS, and web, including Expo config plugin setup.

## Use cases
- detect the user's device language in a react native app
- get preferred locales on ios and android
- build a multi-language react native app
- localize currency, units, and number formats per device region
- configure supported locales in expo
- handle per-app language settings on android 13 and ios

## When to choose
- you need device locale and language detection in react native
- you want expo support via a config plugin
- you target ios, android, and web from one codebase

## When to avoid
- you are not building a react native app
- you only need string translation files without device locale detection
- you need server-side or node.js localization

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: internationalization, sdk
- domain: mobile-development, cross-platform
- platform: -
- tags: react-native, i18n, language-detection, expo, locale-detection, localization, ios, android, macos, web, nodejs
