With the plugin active, WordPress developers can access the following for over 100 WordPress locales: * Names for countries (and ISO 3166 country codes). * Names for regions (and UN M.49 region codes, plus countries included in each region). * Names for languages (and ISO 639 language codes). * Names and symbols for currencies (and ISO 4317 currency codes). * Names for time zone example cities (and IANA time zone IDs). * Calendar information including the first day of the week in different countries. * Country information including telephone codes, most spoken languages, currency, and population. More information in the [detailed API documentation](https://automattic.github.io/wp-cldr/class-WP_CLDR.html). CLDR is a library of localization data coordinated by Unicode. It emphasizes [common, everyday usage](http://cldr.unicode.org/translation/country-names) and is available in over 700 language-region locales. It is [updated every six months](http://cldr.unicode.org/index/downloads) and used by [all major software systems](http://cldr.unicode.org/#TOC-Who-uses-CLDR-). CLDR data is licensed under [Unicode’s data files and software license](http://unicode.org/copyright.html#Exhibit1) which is on [the list of approved GPLv2 compatible licenses](https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html#Unicode).

The plugin ships with JSON files for over 100 WordPress locales including `ar`, ` ary`, `az`, `bg_BG`, `bn_BD`, `bs_BA`, `ca`, `cy`, `da_DK`, `de_CH`, `de_DE`, `de_DE_formal`,` el`, `en_US`, `en_AU`, `en_CA`, `en_GB`, `en_NZ`, `en_ZA`, `eo`, `es_AR`, `es_CL`,` es_CO`, `es_ES`, `es_GT`, `es_MX`, `es_PE`, `es_VE`, `et`, `eu`, `fa_IR`, `fi`, ` fr_BE`, `fr_CA`, `fr_FR`, `gd`, `gl_ES`, `he_IL`, `hi_IN`, `hr`, `hu_HU`, `hy`, ` id_ID`, `is_IS`, `it_IT`, `ja`, `ka_GE`, `ko_KR`, `lt_LT`, `ms_MY`, `my_MM`, `nb_NO`,` nl_NL`, `nl_NL_formal`, `nn_NO`, `pl_PL`, `ps`, `pt_BR`, `pt_PT`, `ro_RO`, `ru_RU`,` sk_SK`, `sl_SI`, `sq`, `sr_RS`, `sv_SE`, `th`, `tl`, `tr_TR`, `ug_CN`, `uk`, `vi`,` zh_CN`, `zh_TW`. #### Is there testing? Yes! The class includes a suite of PHPUnit tests. To run them, call `phpunit` from the plugin directory. #### Can the plugin handle high volume? The plugin includes two layers of caching (in-memory arrays and the WordPress object cache) and is designed for high volume use. It is currently used on WordPress.com. #### Where do the JSON files come from? The scripts used to collect the JSON files are included in the repo. A bash script` bash get-cldr-files.sh` uses wget to collect the files from [Unicode’s reference distribution of CLDR JSON on GitHub](http://cldr.unicode.org/index/cldr-spec/json); a command-line PHP script `php prune-cldr-files.php` removes unneeded locales and locale files from that download. Both should be run from within the `wp-cldr` directory. #### Where can I report issues? Open up a new issue on GitHub at https://github.com/Automattic/wp-cldr/issues.
