[Idea] Language switcher

[dkuku]

Thanks for the great project. Wdyt about adding somewhere a global language switcher.
It can be added as a variant that will show up with every story when storybook is configured for it. Often the length of the text changes the appearance of a component and with this change it would be easy to spot regressions.
Gettext has helpers that set the current locale in process dictionary - this is all that's needed:

iex(2)> Gettext.known_locales(AiConnector.Gettext)
["en", "pl"]
iex(3)> Gettext.get_locale
"en"
iex(4)> Gettext.put_locale("pl")
nil
iex(5)> Gettext.get_locale()
"pl"

Hey Daniel,

What you are suggesting makes sense.
Until it is implemented you can hijack theming features to call Gettest.put_locale/1 when a different theme is picked.

Have a look at :function theme strategy

Hey Daniel, did the trick work for you?
