JavaScript/jQuery Localization - Using Globalize

NOTE

The Globalize package is outdated and potentially unsafe.

Use Globalize at your own risk. We recommend switching to Intl for a more secure solution.

Backend API

To localize components with Globalize, link modules, CLDR scripts, and DevExtreme dictionaries for the target locales. Load the CLDR data for these locales. If following a modular approach, import the necessary components. Set the current locale with the Globalize.locale method.
