Next Generation Internationalization with Rust Using ICU4X - December 2022

Explore the future of internationalization for low-resource devices in this conference talk by Shane Carr, chair of the ICU4X subcommittee at the Unicode Consortium. Discover ICU4X, a lightweight, portable, and secure solution built to address the needs of a global audience using smartphones, smart watches, and other small devices. Learn how ICU4X brings localized date formatting, number formatting, collation, text segmentation, and more to environments previously lacking suitable options. Gain insights into writing fast, modular Rust libraries and understand how ICU4X leverages decades of experience to scale across numerous programming languages and thousands of human languages. The talk also includes introductions from event organizers and a presentation on Rust at Google, followed by a Q&A session.
