Internationalization with React Hook Forms and i18next

i18n with React Hook forms

Internationalization (i18n) is crucial for applications that need to support multiple languages. React Hook Form can be easily integrated with i18next to provide a seamless experience for users across different locales.

To set up i18n with React Hook Form, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install Dependencies: Make sure you have react-hook-form, i18next, and react-i18next installed in your project.

    npm install react-hook-form i18next react-i18next
  2. Configure i18next: Set up your i18next configuration, including the languages you want to support and the translation resources.

    import i18n from 'i18next';
    import { initReactI18next } from 'react-i18next';
    import translationEN from './locales/en/translation.json';
    import translationFR from './locales/fr/translation.json';
    import translationES from './locales/es/translation.json';
    i18n
      .use(initReactI18next)
      .init({
        resources: {
          en: { translation: translationEN },
          fr: { translation: translationFR },
          es: { translation: translationES },
        },
        lng: 'en', // default language
        fallbackLng: 'en',
        interpolation: {
          escapeValue: false, // not needed for React
        },
      });
