- Files cannot be easily previewed by viewing the file in a browser because the content contains only placeholders and even HTML or CSS changes may be dynamically applied, e.g. when a localization requires a Right-To-Left layout direction.

- Style and other fundamental layout changes may be more difficult to apply.

#### Dynamic placeholders
599+
600+
In addition to feature related default parameters such as `appId` and the translations provided via JSON resource, it is possible to define custom dynamic placeholders as part of the router configuration. This works independently of localization and, also if `enableLocalization` is disabled.
601+
602+
**Configuration Example:**
603+
```js
604+
const api = new ParseServer({
605+
...otherOptions,
606+
607+
pages: {
608+
enableRouter: true, // Enables the experimental feature; required for localization
609+
placeholders: {
610+
exampleKey: 'exampleValue'
611+
}
612+
}
613+
}
614+
```
615+
The placeholders can also be provided as function or as async function, with the `locale` and other feature related parameters passed through, to allow for dynamic placeholder values:
616+
617+
```js
618+
const api = new ParseServer({
619+
...otherOptions,
620+
621+
pages: {
622+
enableRouter: true, // Enables the experimental feature; required for localization
623+
placeholders: async (params) => {
624+
const value = await doSomething(params.locale);
625+
return {
626+
exampleKey: value
627+
};
628+
}
629+
}
630+
}
631+
```
632+
633+
#### Reserved Keys
634+
635+
The following parameter and placeholder keys are reserved because they are used related to features such as password reset or email verification. They should not be used as translation keys in the JSON resource or as manually defined placeholder keys in the configuration: `appId`, `appName`, `email`, `error`, `locale`, `publicServerUrl`, `token`, `username`.
