While about 51% of the world’s websites are in English, only about 25% of web users are English speakers. With half of the world’s population online, internationalisation is as relevant as ever! Let’s explore how i18n gets made on the web and what we should keep in mind or avoid when making the web more accessible to the world.

Fantastic use of i18n (n7m) as a priority in accessibility and in sprint planning ("go with German first, it will break everything").

Enjoyable interaction and conversations with the crowd. I will show these slides to my team for pear review.
