Angular 2 Localization

An Angular 2 library to translate messages, dates and numbers.

This library is developed using TypeScript and Angular 2 for i18n and l10n of Angular 2 apps written in TypeScript, ES5 or ES6. It allows, in addition to translation, to localize numbers and dates of your app, adding language code, country code, and optionally script code, numbering system and calendar, through Internationalization API. It also implements the validation of numbers by locales.

Sample app built with Angular 2 Material, AoT compilation & webpack, and its source code.
