# How to add locales in Craft 3

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-10-10)

I'm getting started with Craft, using version **3 beta**, and I don't find the menu option for adding locales so I guess it's not yet ready but there must be another option.

Could anyone guide me through the process of creating a multi-language **Craft 3** site?

**Tags:** localization, craft3

"Sites" in Craft 3 replaces the old "Locales" concept in Craft 2.

There's not much [documentation](https://github.com/craftcms/docs#core-concepts) on them yet, but the [setup process](https://craftcms.com/docs/localization-guide) is virtually the same as it is in Craft 2 for locales. The main difference is that a "site" isn't necessarily tied to a language code, like it is in Craft 2.
