Introduction

Laravel's localization features provide a convenient way to retrieve strings in various languages, allowing you to easily support multiple languages within your application. Language strings are stored in files within the resources/lang directory. Within this directory there should be a subdirectory for each language supported by the application:

/resources
    /lang
        /en
            messages.php
        /es
            messages.php

All language files simply return an array of keyed strings. For example:

<?php

return [
    'welcome' => 'Welcome to our application'
];
