Ez Translation with Deepl
summary
Demonstrates automating locale updates by wiring DeepL into a translation GitHub Action that runs on PRs and converts every local JSON (flat or nested) into translated files; product uses it for a 31-language help center. Finds two concrete failure modes: keys get translated breaking lookups, and parameter placeholders vanish causing runtime crashes; fixes include leaving keys untranslated and using the ignore_text / no-translate tag to preserve code tokens. Also shows integration patterns for Vue i18n and Next.js and a voice-demo into Wu dialect.
