## LocaleProvider
antd provides a React Component [LocaleProvider ](/components/locale-provider ) for configuring antd locale text globally.
```jsx
import { LocaleProvider } from 'antd';
import frFR from 'antd/lib/locale-provider/fr_FR';
return (
< LocaleProvider locale = {frFR} >
< App / >
< / LocaleProvider >
);
```
You can see complete config at: [LocaleProvider ](/components/locale-provider ).
Note: `fr_FR` is the filename, follow below.
