Localization is the process of showing other languages in your app and is surprisingly painless in iOS.  For most of us the base version of the app will be written in English.  Then you will localize the app to other languages.  The process of localization in this article is based on the latest Xcode which is 12.1.

Updating Realm and RealmSwift from 5.5.x to 10.0.0 brought in the following error 

RealmSwift 10.1: framework not found realm-sync

The greatest clue I came across to solving this issue was on the Realm GitHub issues page for realm-sync error.  However, updating Cocopods wasn't the only step required to correct this issue.  The steps I took were:

At times while developing in October CMS, you will perform a step that kills the site.  Recently, I had transferred the site to production and I was working through our steps to cross check deployment.  This included reviewing the error logger plugin.  The error logger has four tabs Mailer, Slack, Syslog and Relic.
