Removing a language

This guide provides steps to remove a language from your project.

Step 1: Remove the locale file​

Navigate to the src/data/dictionaries folder and delete the JSON file of the language you want to remove.

Step 2: Update Configuration​

In the src/configs/i18n.ts file, remove the language from the locales array and delete its entry from the langDirection object.

Step 3: Additional Modifications​

  • In the src/utils/getDictionary.ts file, remove the import statement for the language you are removing.

  • In next.config.mjs, update the redirects to exclude the removed language.

Step 4: Clear browser cache​

After completing the above steps, delete the .next folder before running your project again. You may also need to clear the browser cache to see the changes. Refer to this guide for more information. Alternatively, test the changes in your browser's Guest Mode.

By following these steps, you have successfully removed a language from your project.
