    Hi HN! We've just released an open-source React bundler plugin that makes apps multilingual—at build time, without modifying the code. React app localization typically requires implementing i18n frameworks, extracting text to JSON files, and wrapping components in translation tags - essentially rewriting your entire codebase before you can even start translating. Our React bundler plugin eliminates this friction entirely. You add it to an existing React app, specify which languages you want, and it automatically makes your app multilingual without touching a single line of your component…

    I built this because I was frustrated with how messy translation files get as projects scale. Most i18n solutions force you to manage big JSON dictionaries, spread across multiple files, and then manually wire everything into your UI. It quickly becomes hard to keep things organized, especially in component-heavy apps. This approach is component-first i18n: translations live close to the UI they belong to. That makes it easier to keep things organized, avoid duplication, and scale without the usual chaos of string management. It’s lightweight, works with React/Next.js, and is designed…

    i18next released a new version of a new selector API that lets you pass a selector function to t instead of a string key: // before i18next.t('my.nested.key') // after i18next.t($ => $.my.nested.key) The change unlocks IDE autocompletion and “go to definition”, preserves JSDoc from your resource files at the call site, and — critically — removes the huge type-level unions that used to grind TypeScript/IDEs to a halt. See the announcement and examples. The selector support has landed in i18next (PR merged) and react-i18next has matching typings/changes. If you…

    We just adapted our lightweight internationalization solution for Preact. It supports per-component translations that are dynamically loaded, so only visible content is fetched – keeping bundles lean. Example bundle sizes: Preact + Intlayer: 120 KB Preact support is handled via a new npm package, preact-intlayer.

    I build this app because I was tired of using Google Translate to translate my locale files (i18n). I wanted to use a more efficient and accurate translation tool. ChatGPT, however, always break my json and cannot translate large contents. So I build this app to solve these problems. Hope it can save your time. github: https://github.com/ObservedObserver/chatgpt-i18n online app: https://chatgpt-i18n.vercel.app/
