ttag-org
Modern javascript i18n localization library based on ES6 tagged templates and the good old GNU gettext
Key features
- Uses ES6 template literals for string formatting (no need for sprintf).
- Contexts support
- It can precompile translations on a build step.
- Plurals support ngettext.
- It can be integrated in any build tool that works with babel.
- Has a builtin validation for translated strings format.
- It can use any default locale in sources (not only English).
- Handles React (jsx) translations.
- Can be easily integrated with Create React App. CRA doc
Usage example
import { t, ngettext, msgid } from 'ttag';
// formatted strings
const name = 'Mike';
const helloMike = t`Hello ${name}`;
// plurals (works for en locale out of the box)
const n = 5;
const msg = ngettext(msgid`${n} task left`, `${n} tasks left`, n);
