Chapter 17   where a poor Decimal Number came from Server Side to JavaScript I worked on a page for days, adjusting the UI with CSS and HTML. Everything looked fine… until I started testing multi-lingual support. English — OK. Spanish — OK. Chinese — OK. Even right-to-left Hebrew (crooked and askew, but working). But Russian? Nope. In Russian the page stopped working completely: only static texts and images were visible. Nothing dynamic rendered. Of course it was a JavaScript error.

The obvious assumption (that turned out wrong) Once I accepted the chaos, I assumed there must be a “build for production” command that would “compile” depende...
