Localization of widgets for a software application

A method for deploying a software application, the method comprising:

• obtaining, by processing circuitry, configuration information for the software application, the configuration information specifying a first widget configured to indicate a first identifier for a first string and a second widget configured to indicate a second identifier for a second string;
• configuring, by the processing circuitry and based on a request from a client device to execute the software application, the client device to obtain the configuration information and localization information associated with the software application, the localization information defining:
• a first mapping of:
• the first identifier to a first plurality of string values for the first string, wherein each string value of the first plurality of string values corresponds to one or more localities of a plurality of localities, and
• a second mapping of:
• the second identifier to a second plurality of string values for the second string, wherein each string value of the second plurality of string values corresponds to at least one locality of the plurality of localities;
• generating, by the processing circuitry, instructions configured to cause the client device to, based on the client device obtaining the configuration information and the localization information:
• select a first string value from the first plurality of string values for the first string based on the first identifier being mapped to the first string value in the first mapping defined in the localization information,
• and
• select a second string value from the second plurality of string values for the second string based on the second identifier being mapped to the second string value in the second mapping defined in the localization information;
• and
• outputting, by the processing circuitry, the instructions to the client device to render a graphical user interface based, at least in part, on the first string value and the second string value.

Non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising logic that, when executed, causes processing circuitry to:

• obtain configuration information for a software application, the configuration information specifying a first widget configured to indicate a first identifier for a first string and a second widget configured to indicate a second identifier for a second string;
• configure a client device to obtain, based on a request from the client device to execute the software application, the configuration information and localization information associated with the software application, the localization information defining:
• a first mapping of:
• the first identifier to a first plurality of string values for the first string, wherein each string value of the first plurality of string values corresponds to one or more localities of a plurality of localities, and
• a second mapping of:
• the second identifier to a second plurality of string values for the second string, wherein each string value of the second plurality of string values corresponds to at least one locality of the plurality of localities;
• generate instructions configured to cause the client device to, based on the client device obtaining the configuration information and the localization information:
• select a first string value from the first plurality of string values for the first string based on the first identifier being mapped to the first string value in the first mapping defined in the localization information,
• and
• select a second string value from the second plurality of string values for the second string based on the second identifier being mapped to the second string value in the second mapping defined in the localization information;
• and
• output the instructions to the client device to render a graphical user interface based, at least in part, on the first string value and the second string value.
