Issue: PHP developers can efficiently troubleshoot and resolve issues related to date formatting and localization in their code by using the `strftime()` function along with the `setlocale()` function to set the desired locale for date formatting.

// Set the desired locale for date formatting
setlocale(LC_TIME, 'en_US');

// Format the current date according to the set locale
echo strftime('%A, %B %d, %Y');
