dotnet-localization

Comprehensive .NET internationalization and localization: .resx resource files and satellite assemblies, modern alternatives (JSON resources, source generators for AOT), IStringLocalizer patterns, date/number/currency formatting with CultureInfo, RTL layout support, pluralization engines, and per-framework localization integration for Blazor, MAUI, Uno Platform, and WPF.

Version assumptions: .NET 8.0+ baseline. IStringLocalizer stable since .NET Core 1.0; localization APIs stable since .NET 5. .NET 9+ features explicitly marked.
