This module provides system-related or enhanced I18N capabilities, such as locale management, phone number formatting, and calendar, through supplementary I18N APIs that are not defined in ECMA 402.
The [Intl](js-apis-intl.md) module provides basic I18N capabilities through the standard I18N APIs defined in ECMA 402. It works with the I18N module to provide a complete suite of I18N capabilities.
