# Discovery Framework localization scenarios

Discovery Framework localization refers to two sets of tasks.

The first case is translating a component that has already been localized. In this scenario, you are applying the translation to components whose message strings have already been externalized to a resource bundle. Details on modifying and deploying a translated component appear in the next section.

The second, more involved case is developing or updating a component so that it supports localization. For details, see the section beginning with the topic "Setting up a component for localization."
