Important Notes

Cross-Environment Compatibility

  • Code in this directory must work in both browser and server environments
  • Do not use Deno-specific APIs here as they won't work in the browser
  • Use https://esm.sh for any imports to ensure compatibility
  • All functions are pure and side-effect free

Performance Considerations

  • Language arrays are optimized for fast lookups
  • Helper functions use efficient filtering and searching
  • Types are designed to minimize bundle size
  • Regional grouping reduces UI rendering complexity

Internationalization

  • Native names are provided in original scripts
  • Language codes follow ISO 639-1 and BCP 47 standards
  • Regional variants are properly distinguished
  • Cultural context is preserved in language definitions
