This video was recorded at ElixirConf EU 2022 - https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Building Elixir Applications for Global Audiences or an Audience of One | Kip Cole - Author of ex_cldr and ex_unicode Elixir libraries ABSTRACT Localising applications in Elixir for global audiences - or just an audience of one - doesn’t have to be difficult. In this session, we’ll define some design patterns and workflows using common Elixir libraries to build a simple e-commerce application showing how localisation can improve user experience and deliver better audience engagement. Talk objectives: Show that building localised applications for global audiences - or just an audience of one - can be as easy as building non-localised applications. Demonstrate these techniques and tools by building a simple e-commerce system during the session. Illustrate simple design patterns and workflows to make localisation simple and fun. Target audience: Developers looking to deliver improved user experience, who recognise that respecting users preferences (like language, formats, …) improves audience engagement and delivers better outcomes. • Timecodes: 00:00 - 04:13 - Intro 04:14 - 06:57 - What is Localisation and why Localise? 06:57 - 12:50 - Identifying the Users Locale and Preferences 12:51 - 14:02 - What does a Language Tag Tell Us? 14:03 - 23:06 - A note about Countries, Territories and Regions 23:07 - 25:46 - Introducing CLDR 25:47 - 39:15 - Localising Basic Data Types 39:16 - 43:08 - In Summary • Follow us on social: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/27159258 • Looking for a unique learning experience?
