## ConfigProvider
`antd` provides a React Component [ConfigProvider ](/components/config-provider ) for configuring antd locale text globally.
```jsx
import { ConfigProvider } from 'antd';
import frFR from 'antd/lib/locale/fr_FR';
return (
< ConfigProvider locale = {frFR} >
< App / >
< / ConfigProvider >
);
```
You can see the complete configuration here: [ConfigProvider ](/components/config-provider ).
Note: `fr_FR` is the filename, the following table also follows the same rules.
