React.js Conf 2015 - Formatting with FormatJS and react-intl

Eric Ferraiuolo, Yahoo

You speak English, but most people don't. Formatting numbers, dates, and pluralizing strings is hard enough to get right in English, let alone internationalizing your web app to support multiple languages. FormatJS with react-intl (open sourced by Yahoo) has your back by providing a declarative way for your React-based app to format data and strings for English and over 150 languages in just 7KB gzipped.

Had no idea internationalization could be done like this. Thanks a lot for the post!

I'll keep in mind that it's expensive to create those number and date objects and it's ideal to reuse them 11:15
