# Individual Localization Packages
As of vesion v3.0.0 faker.js supports incremental loading of locales.
By default, requiring faker will include all locale data.
In a production environment, you may only want to include the locale data for a specific set of locales.
// loads only de locale
var faker = require('faker/locale/de');
