How to use React context for internationalization? 

React Context is a powerful tool that allows you to easily share data between components in a React application without having to pass props down the component tree. This can be particularly useful when it comes to internationalization (i18n), as it can help to solve the problem of "props drilling" - the process of passing props down through multiple levels of nested components.

To use React Context for i18n, you can create a context object that contains your localization messages, and then use a provider component to make that context available to all components in your app. By doing this, you can access your localization messages from anywhere in the component tree without having to pass them down through each individual component.

Many popular localization libraries, such as react-intl, use the context or provider pattern for passing localization messages in this way. React-intl is a great library for managing i18n in React applications, as it provides a variety of tools for formatting and displaying localized text, dates, and numbers.
