Locale-aware formatting of conjunctions

This feature allows the formatting of lists using conjunctions (e.g., 'and' in English) according to the specified locale. It is useful for creating human-readable lists in user interfaces.

import { IntlListFormat } from '@formatjs/intl-listformat';

const formatter = new IntlListFormat('en', { style: 'long', type: 'conjunction' });
const formattedList = formatter.format(['Apple', 'Orange', 'Banana']);
console.log(formattedList); // Output: 'Apple, Orange, and Banana'

Locale-aware formatting of disjunctions

This feature supports formatting lists with disjunctions (e.g., 'or' in English), adapting to the locale's specific rules and preferences. It's particularly useful in contexts where choices are presented to users.

import { IntlListFormat } from '@formatjs/intl-listformat';

const formatter = new IntlListFormat('en', { style: 'long', type: 'disjunction' });
const formattedList = formatter.format(['Apple', 'Orange', 'Banana']);
console.log(formattedList); // Output: 'Apple, Orange, or Banana'

Locale-aware formatting of unit lists

This feature is designed for formatting lists of units, making it easier to display measurements and other unit-based data in a way that conforms to local customs.

import { IntlListFormat } from '@formatjs/intl-listformat';

const formatter = new IntlListFormat('en', { style: 'short', type: 'unit' });
const formattedList = formatter.format(['1 lb', '12 oz']);
console.log(formattedList); // Output: '1 lb, 12 oz'
