How-to-use i18n(Internationalization) folder in Appcelerator

//  How-to-use i18n(Internationalization) folder

// Rather than hard-coding strings into your project, you can use localized strings. Localized strings are replaced at runtime with values appropriate to the user's language. Titanium relies on resources files and string placeholders to accomplish this task.

Example :)

 // Titanium provides two functions for obtaining a localized string from your resource files. Both take the key of the string requested as their first parameter. The L() macro is a short form for Ti.Locale.getString():

LIKE

var str1 = L('welcome_message');

var str2 = Ti.Locale.getString('welcome_message');

// str1 === str2

Sample code is available on GIT :)
