FYI: month and weekday names are context-dependent in some languages about locales HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey @nikolay-turpitko

I will try and see if the alt date formats are in the CLDR data somewhere. Once the need for context comes in this library is only designed for the l10n stuff really and that's handles by this library's sister project https://github.com/go-playground/universal-translator which provides the i18n stuff to the end user like custom translations...

as for customising the locale, that's why each returns an interface rather than pointer to a struct so you can create your own, copy-paste-modify, or embed in your own object/struct and override a function and because it complies with the interface will still work in it's sister project just fine...just a different way to customized, but by doing it this way could also create your own reusable locale.

I could allow settings to be set etc..but this is all generated code so if I allowed that then I would have to parse the format every time instead of having the pre-parsed and most efficient code..besides just keeping it simple to use and implement is definitely a priority

Ah, I see. I think I can close this issue now.

@nikolay-turpitko no worries

if you need an example of how it all comes together in a project I have a prototype here you can take a look at; I will be trying to make a framework to hide most of this behind but think you will get how and why it's all split out and should be used 😄
