Description

First of all, its projects like this that make me really appreciate javascript, I absolutely love it.

But as a developer and part store owner, I imagine the shopify support is just creating tickets that the dev team has 10000 of in the backlog? Thats why I came here directly to ask the question.

Im wondering whether there are any plans to integrate a language parameter to the javascript object (the create component thing), where the attribute would be set to like "en-us, de-ger " etc to determine which language the checkout is in? As of now, this isnt possible, and it makes having multilingual sites with one shopify portal a nightmare.

Research direction

Start by reading the JavaScript create component API and its checkout configuration. Determine how a locale parameter would be specified and what language behavior is expected for multilingual stores; done means the checkout language can be selected through the component.
