# Setting visitor's language

By default your project appears in default (source) language to the user. There are two ways to switch to the desired language.

## 1. BabelShark language drop-down

## 2. Change via JavaScript API

Call *babelShark.setLanguage(languageCode)* to switch current user to the desired language. The language setting will be stored within the user's browser.
