# Site I18n Config

To take advantage of multi-language support in VuePress, you first need to use the following file and directory structure:

docs
├─ README.md
├─ foo.md
├─ nested
│  └─ README.md
└─ zh
   ├─ README.md
   ├─ foo.md
   └─ nested
      └─ README.md

Then, specify the locales option in your config file:

module.exports = {
  locales: {
    // The key is the path for the locale to be nested under.
    // As a special case, the default locale can use '/' as its path.
    '/': {
      lang: 'en-US',
      title: 'DyAbp',
      description: 'Empowering Your Abp Development',
    },
    '/zh/': {
      lang: 'zh-CN',
      title: 'DyAbp',
      description: '助力您的Abp开发',
    },
  },
}

If a locale does not have a lang, title, description or head, VuePress will fallback to the root-level values. You can omit the root level config as long as they are provided in each locale.

# Theme I18n Config

VuePress does not restrict how themes provide multi-language support, so each theme may have different way to handle i18n, and some themes may not provide multi-language support at all. You'd better refer to the theme documentation for detailed guide.

If you are using default theme, the multi-language support is the same with above:

module.exports = {
  themeConfig: {
    locales: {
      '/': {
        selectLanguageName: 'English',
      },
      '/zh/': {
        selectLanguageName: '简体中文',
      },
    },
  },
}
