Can Angular4+ provide localization via HTTP Header Accept_Language?

Question

While reading the Angular i18n guide I was struck by the following line:

You need to build and deploy a separate version of the app for each supported language.

It seems like very few system providers would want this model. I know we don't want it. Is there any suggested way of providing localized data via the HTTP Accept_Language header with one system deployed?

Why not use ngx-translate https://github.com/ngx-translate to provide the i18n for the desired languages? — Christian Benseler, Nov 07 '17 at 19:18
@ChristianBenseler - good suggestion. I'd like the full Angular support, but this may help in the short run. — Michael Witt, Nov 07 '17 at 19:52

For now there is no possibility to have a runtime localisation, but it should come in angular 5 update. Check out the first feature in this link Runtime i18n (one bundle for all locales with AOT) - [working on it] https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/16477
