## Bundler

CKEditor 5 is currently built using [webpack](https://webpack.js.org) (>=2.x.x). All builds, examples and demos are generated using this bundler. It should also be possible to build CKEditor using other bundlers (if they are configured properly), such as [Rollup](https://github.com/rollup/rollup) or [Browserify](http://browserify.org/) but these setups are not officially supported yet. Also, the [`@ckeditor/ckeditor5-dev-webpack-plugin`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-dev-webpack-plugin) that allows to localize the editor is only available for webpack. More work on this subject will be done after v1.0.0.

Therefore, **a prerequisite to this guide is that you are using webpack as your build tool**.

## Scenario 1: Integrating existing builds

This is the simplest scenario. It assumes that you want to use {@link builds/guides/overview#Available-builds one of the existing builds} "as-is" (you can, of course, still {@link builds/guides/integration/configuration configure the editor}). It also gives the fastest build times.

<info-box>
At the current stage, builds are only available in English. {@link features/ui-language Setting editor UI language} requires rebuilding the editor which means that this scenario is quite limited.
</info-box>

First, install the build of your choice {@link builds/guides/integration/installation#npm from npm}:

## Building the editor using a specific language

Currently, it is only possible to change the UI language at the build stage. A single build of the editor supports only the language which was defined in the [CKEditor 5 webpack plugin](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-dev-webpack-plugin)'s configuration.
Currently, it is possible to change the UI language at the build stage and after the build. A single build of the editor supports the language which was defined in the [CKEditor 5 webpack plugin](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ckeditor/ckeditor5-dev-webpack-plugin)'s configuration. See the whole translation process to see how you can change the language later.

This guide needs to be pretty much rewritten rather than patched. Since the whole picture changed dramatically we need to put focus on different things.

  1. The current intro can stay.

  2. But then we should explain how to initialize the editor from CDN/zip/npm with a different language. This is what most people will want to do. Please also review other guides like installation.md and other places where we list files available in a build because that list needs to be updated (and perhaps link to the ui-language.md guide):

    image

  3. Then we can provide a few more details on what other options people have:

    • compiling an optimised editor (single language case),
    • compiling a subset of languages (TBH, I'm not sure what's the use case for that – perhaps speeding up the process and reducing the number of files – but let's mention it anyway),
    • handling multiple entry points scenario (as @ma2ciek noticed that has certain limitations)
  4. At the end we can mention that compiling editor translations is only available for Webpack and we will be extending support for other bundlers in the future. If we want to mention those tickets about translations services we should explain why we mention them. Something like – if you'd like to tinker with one of the bundlers you can read about CKEditor 5's translation service here and here.


If you use one of the {@link builds/index predefined editor builds}, refer to {@link builds/guides/development/custom-builds Creating custom builds} to learn how to change the language of your build.

Is false a default value? In documentation, in code samples, we should present real usage and no one will change false to false :P Plus, the comment above is unclear now – if you'd turn it on here, we could simply document that it "Will cause the building process to fail if a translation for one of the strings is missing".

Ok. I just wanted to list available options with their default values.

3. Run webpack. The CKEditor plugin for webpack will replace the {@link module:utils/locale~Locale#t `t()`} function calls used in the source code with localized language strings.
3. Run webpack. If the `additionalLanguages` option is not set, the CKEditor plugin for webpack will replace the {@link module:utils/locale~Locale#t `t()`} function call parameters used in the source code with localized language strings. Otherwise the CKEditor plugin for webpack will replace the {@link module:utils/locale~Locale#t `t()`} function call parameters with short ids and emit the translation files that should land in the `'lang'` directory (or different, if the `outputDirectory` option is specified).

4. If you want to change the language after the build ends, you will need to edit the `index.html` file, add the translation file and set the UI language to the target one.

<script src="../build/ckeditor.js"></script>

Better Consistent formatting:

    .create( {
    } )
    .then()
    .catch();

language: 'pl'
} )
.then( editor => {
window.editor = editor;
} )
.catch( err => {
console.error( err.stack );
} );
</script>

We are aware that the current localization method is not sufficient for all needs. It neither supports different bundlers (e.g. Rollup or Browserify) nor building multiple languages (to make it possible to pick one at runtime). We will be extending the localization possiblities in the near future.
