Play Framework is a widely-used, web development framework based on Scala. Play Framework supports localization and internationalization. The standard localization file format is Play Framework Properties file. These can be imported and exported using Phrase. The Play Framework Properties file shares the same file structure with the Java Properties file (i.e., key-value string pairs connected with a =). Their difference is mainly in the file extensions. While a Java Properties file often ends with .properties, a Play Framework Properties File typically follows a locale-based convention (e.g., messages.en/messages.de).
