Handling Locales with Date-Fns for Multi-Language Support in React
I'm trying to debug I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer. I'm not sure how to approach I'm working on a React application that needs to display dates in various formats depending on the user's locale, but I'm working with issues when using the date-fns library for localization. I'm trying to format a date object into a localized string based on the user's language preference, but I keep getting unexpected results. For instance, when I attempt to format a date for French users, the output still shows in the default English format. Here's the relevant code snippet: ```javascript import { format } from 'date-fns'; import { fr, enUS } from 'date-fns/locale'; const formatDate = (date, locale) => { return format(date, 'PPP', { locale }); }; const userLocale = navigator.language.startsWith('fr') ? fr : enUS; const dateToDisplay = new Date(); const formattedDate = formatDate(dateToDisplay, userLocale); console.log(formattedDate); ``` I'm using date-fns version 2.27.0. When I check the output, it doesn’t seem to respect the locale setting, remaining in English. I've also tried explicitly passing `locale` as an object, but that didn't work either. The behavior I'm seeing in the console is not very helpful: `Expected locale to be an object`. I attempted using `format(date, 'PPP', { locale: { code: 'fr' } });`, but that raised a different behavior. What am I missing here? How can I ensure that the date is formatted correctly based on the user's locale? My team is using Javascript for this service. Has anyone dealt with something similar?
