    14 <p>You need to take internationalization concerns into account as early

    15 as possible when designing your application. This section describes internationalization

    16 and localization, including:</p>

    17 <ul>

    18 <li><p><xref href="GUID-457CC544-EC3B-4863-A5C4-DC7046614929.dita">Locale-sensitive

    19 data types</xref></p>

    22 strings</xref></p>

    25 UI text localization</xref></p>

    26 </li>

    27 </ul>

    28 <p>When localizing your application, there are two different concerns that

    29 you need to manage in your project. These are as follows:</p>

    30 <ul>

    31 <li><p>Date, Times, Currency, and other locale-sensitive data types</p>

    32 </li>

    33 <li><p>UI text strings</p></li>

    34 </ul>
