Designers love to craft, but polishing pixels before the problem is solved is a time-sink.

- ESM-first, TypeScript-ready
I mostly made it for myself, but figured others m


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.
