Translation Files

After you prepare a component for translation, use the extract-i18n Angular CLI command to extract the marked text in the component into a source language file. The marked text includes text marked with i18n, attributes marked with i18n-attribute, and text tagged with $localize. The extract-i18n command creates a source language file named messages.xlf in the root directory of your project. If you have multiple language files, add the locale to the file name, like messages.{locale}.xlf.
