Let's install locize:

With the help of the locize plugin, you'll be able to use your app within the locize InContext Editor.

locizer is a lightweight module to access data from your locize project and use that inside your application.

If your browser is configured with german language, you may now have seen the language automatically was set to german by default. This is because of the language detection feature of locizer. You can configure the language detection with other options By default the language detection also is looking for the query parameter lng, so you can also type this url to test this: http://localhost:8080/?lng=de
