Internationalize AngularJS: Globalized Apps for a Global Audience
Speaker: Rahul Doshi (bio below)

Your app may work great in your region, but how well does it work for the rest of the world’s internet users, a large number of whom don’t use English as their primary language?

We will explore various strategies for internationalization, including localization and translations, of AngularJS applications, discussing the various pros and cons of each technique. We will also briefly examine the ECMAScript Internationalization API and other popular open-source projects (modular libraries) for similarities and differences; the objective being to identify certain factors that affect the decision of what approach to ultimately take in building globalization support into your new and/or existing AngularJS applications.

Topics will include number and datetime formatting, cultures/locales, pluralization (using ngPluralize) and gender formatting, along with best practices, common pitfalls and finally, the role of your API (backend server).

Bio

Rahul is a UI Architect at Dailymotion. He previously worked at Adap.tv (acquired by AOL Inc.) where he discovered AngularJS and is currently building his second enterprise-grade web application, focusing primarily on the scaleability, performance and usability aspects.His background also includes Java, C/C++ and Android although he now spends most of his time building responsive front-end applications.

***New Guest Badging System***

The Google Guest badging system has changed.

We recommended pre-printed badges. To get a pre-printed badge, please complete the following steps by 12p on Friday 9/19 to ensure one gets created for you:

1)RSVP
2)Please provide a full first name and last name (if your meetup.com profile doesn't publicly show that, please send us a message with that information)

If a pre-printed badge is not available for you when you arrive, you may create one on-demand, but due to the logistics of this process, please note there may be a long wait and this option will only be available until 6:15pm.

Getting to the meetup by public transit (from Caltrain)

FROM THE MOUNTAIN VIEW CALTRAIN STATION

Look for the Shoreline Shuttle stop (2nd bus shelter in outer circle, near entrance (http://goo.gl/maps/uQv61) <--use "Satellite" view to see best). You'll be riding in the reverse direction from most commuters, but the shuttle itself goes in a loop. Take the shuttle to stop #8 (Alza Plaza) and then walk to Building 1950 (approx a 2 minute walk).

Please note, the Caltrain area can be confusing due to all the different shuttles doing dropoff/pickups. Couple tips:

• Please look for a white shuttle van that looks similar to the one pictured here (http://eblog.mercedes-benz-passion.com/2010/04/daimler-vans-usa-launches-fourth-sprinter-model/).

• Shuttle will have a small sign that reads, "Shoreline Caltrain" or "MTV Caltrain"

The relevant stop times are below. Note that due to traffic, the buses do not always run according to this schedule. If a bus arrives early, it will wait until the shuttle time to depart, but if it is running late, it will only make a quick stop, so please keep an eye out.

Leaving MTV Caltrain (note, pickup times are approximate)

5:06pm
5:27pm
5:46pm
6:07pm <--note, this arrives to the Alza stop at approx 6:38p (after the first talk starts - please only take this if you have completed the steps above to get a pre-printed badge, otherwise the on-demand badge service will unfortunately no longer be available)

GETTING BACK TO THE MOUNTAIN VIEW CALTRAIN STATION
We'll have a shiny Google bus do a single run (about 8:15pm) to get everyone back to Caltrain in time to catch the 8:49pm Northbound train. The bus will be stationed at the turnabout between buildings 1900 and 2000.
