Setting Up Your Angular Project

Before you start with the installation of any Kendo UI for Angular control, ensure that you have a running Angular project. The prerequisites to accomplish the installation of the components are always the same regardless of the Kendo UI for Angular package you want to use, and are fully described in the section on setting up your Angular project.

Installing the Package

The Kendo UI for Angular Localization package is automatically installed during the installation process of any Kendo UI for Angular components.

Using the Package

After successfully installing any Kendo UI for Angular component, provide the MessageService service in the constructor in the app.component.ts file:

import { MessageService } from '@progress/kendo-angular-l10n';

@Component({
    standalone: true,
    selector: 'my-app',
    providers: [MessageService]
})

export class AppComponent {
    constructor(public messages: MessageService) {}
}

Then, utilize the notify function of the service to change the direction of the used component on button click:
ts
```
public toggleRTL() {
    this.rtl = !this.rtl;
    this.messages.notify(this.rtl);
}
```
Build and serve the application by running the following command in the root folder.
sh
```
ng serve
```
Point your browser to http://localhost:4200 to toggle the RTL mode of the Grid.
