Renaming or localizing boolean values

Boolean values are essential in software development, representing binary states like true/false and on/off. However, these raw values might not always be user-friendly or contextually appropriate. Localizing boolean values into more meaningful terms can enhance clarity and improve user experience.

This guide will show you how to transform boolean variables into descriptive states tailored to various contexts and environments. We'll also cover translating these localized values into different languages, ensuring a seamless interface for users worldwide.

Note: this change is only for the GUI, it won't make changes on the original data.

1. Enable the localization editor in your application.

2. Go to Admin > Localization
