Unicode CLDR 35.1 is a dot release focusing on calendar and date format support for the new Reiwa era in Japan, including support for the upcoming Unicode 12.1. Version 35.1 is the latest version of CLDR, the core open-source language data that major software systems use to adapt software to the conventions of over 80 different languages. The open-source Unicode ICU library incorporates the CLDR Version 35.1 data as part of its ICU 64.2 release. ICU code is used by many products for Unicode and language support, including Android, Cloudant, ChromeOS, Db2, iOS, macOS, Windows, and many others.
