Continuous Translation: I18n in Agile Projects
summary
Continuous translation is a working CI pipeline that pushes new source strings to Transifex, pulls compiled locales at build time, and falls back to a cached tarball when the service is unavailable. The project supports more than 28 languages with ~1,400 community translators, sees ~4,000 words change per week, and costs about an hour per week of dev time. Key pieces: Transifex, jsgettext, r2, moment.js.
