# Localization Framework reference

Reference topics provide information on components and technical aspects of the Localization Framework.

-   **[Translation modes](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/localization-framework/translation-modes.md)**  
Localization Framework offers several translation modes for completing localization tasks. As a localization admin, you can select one or more of these modes when configuring the procedures for localization tasks.
-   **[States of Localization Framework projects and tasks](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/localization-framework/localization-task-states.md)**  
In Localization Framework, the state of a localization project or of a task defines the status of the localization request. The states of the localization tasks change based on the workflow that is configured for translations.
-   **[Error messages in the Localization Framework](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/localization-framework/error-messages.md)**  
Error messages are displayed when the appropriate settings are not configured for the translation and workflow preferences.
