doclang

fun doclang(locale: String? = null): Any

For a list of supported locales for built-in localizations, see here.

.doclang {en}

.doclang {English}

If it's unset, the current language of the document is returned as its localized name (e.g. English, Italiano, Français).

The current document language is .doclang
