I18nextProvider

What it does

The I18nextProvider does take an i18next instance via prop i18n and passes that down using the context API.

import { I18nextProvider } from 'react-i18next';
import i18n from './i18n';
import App from './App';

<I18nextProvider i18n={i18n} defaultNS={'translation'}>
  <App />
</I18nextProvider>

When to use?

You will need to use the provider if you need to support multiple i18next instances - eg. if you provide a component library (like this example) or in scenarios for SSR (ServerSideRendering). Additionally, you have the ability to manage the default namespace(s) by passing defaultNS.
