The localeurl Django application allow you to specify the language of a page in the URL.
Suppose you have a Django website in multiple languages. The localeurl application allow you to specify the language of a page in the URL, like so: `http://www.example.com/nl/company/profile. Any URLs without language prefix will be redirected to add the prefix for the default language.
Some reasons for using localeurl:
- Search engines will index all languages.
- Every page should have a unique URL. If you feel that different languages means different pages, then each language should get its own unique URL.
- Setting the language for the website should be done using a POST request (because it influences subsequent page views, see Django ticket #3651). You might not want to use POST requests.
