Mar 1, 2026

March 2026: Implemented Date Localization and i18n for the Vue 3 design system, including a localization composable and translations for English and Polish, with consistent locale handling via the SUPPORTED_LOCALE enum. Strengthened locale typing across date-related components by propagating SupportedLocale to i18n and date pickers, removing manual type casts and tightening imports with type-only usages. Standardized locale usage across date components, reducing localization bugs and improving UX. Release updated to 34.0.8 to reflect changes and enable downstream consumption. Business impact: more reliable multilingual UX, faster onboarding of new locales, and reduced maintenance overhead for localization.
