Exam PDII Topic 4 Question 130 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's PDII exam
Question #: 130
Topic #: 4
A Salesforce developer is hired by a multi-national company to build a custom Lightning application that shows employees their employment benefits and earned commissions over time. The application must acknowledge and respect the user's locale context for dates, times, numbers, currency, and currency symbols.
When using Aura components, which approach should the developer implement to ensure the Lightning application complies with the user's locale?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

The $Locale value provider is a global value provider that returns information about the current user's locale, such as the date format, time format, number format, currency format, and currency symbol. You can use the $Locale value provider to format the data in your Aura components according to the user's locale preferences. The $User global variable returns information about the current user, such as the name, email, profile, and role, but not the locale preferences. The $Label global value provider returns custom labels that are defined in your Salesforce organization. Custom labels are used to create multilingual applications that can be translated into different languages. A hierarchical custom setting is a type of custom setting that lets you set different values for different profiles or users. You can use a hierarchical custom setting to store user preferences, but you would need to write code to retrieve and apply them to your Aura components.
