Windows Phone is a mobile operating system developed by Microsoft. Similar to other Microsoft platforms (e.g. .NET), Windows Phone supports localization and internationalization through its variation of .resx files.
Windows Phone ResX files are XML-based. Translatable data are placed in the <value>
elements nested under <data>
. <value>
elements may also exist in the <resheader>
elements. These <value>
elements contain metadata associated with the app and should not be treated as translatable strings. Phrase has a ready-for-use filter to help you manage Windows Phone ResXs.
