Resource files give you an easy way to localize/internationalize your .net applications by automatically determining which language resx file to use based on the user’s locale. To add more languages, simply add another translated resource file.
Resource files give you a central location to store your strings, files and scripts and refer to them in a strongly-typed manner (so the compile will break if you reference them improperly).
Resource files can be compiled into satellite assemblies, making it easy to change up the resources in a production application without having to recompile the whole thing.
