# Getting started
NOTE
We will be using ES2015 (opens new window) in the code samples in the guide.
# HTML
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue/dist/vue.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue-i18n@8"></script>
<div id="app">
<p>{{ $t("message.hello") }}</p>
</div>
# JavaScript
// If using a module system (e.g. via vue-cli), import Vue and VueI18n and then call Vue.use(VueI18n).
// import Vue from 'vue'
// import VueI18n from 'vue-i18n'
//
// Vue.use(VueI18n)
// Ready translated locale messages
const messages = {
en: {
message: {
hello: 'hello world'
}
},
ja: {
message: {
hello: 'こんにちは、世界'
}
}
}
// Create VueI18n instance with options
const i18n = new VueI18n({
locale: 'ja', // set locale
messages, // set locale messages
})
// Create a Vue instance with `i18n` option
new Vue({ i18n }).$mount('#app')
// Now the app has started!
Output the following:
<div id="#app">
<p>こんにちは、世界</p>
</div>
