Moved from static JSON files to react-i18next and now supports 18 locales with language detection, lazy loading and hook-based t() usage; fixed problems where every language loaded on every page and translations missed releases by syncing translations with feature work and loading per-locale. Uses Intl or date-fns (avoid reinventing date logic), stores timestamps in UTC, enforces UTF-8, avoids concatenated strings, designs flexible CSS and names like previous/next so RTL and long translations actually fit.
