This is exactly one of the main benefits of such tools, with complete
integration with VCS (sources, translation files, pull/push/commits),
change tracking at the string level, string reordering support, multiple
source format support, translation helpers (translation QA tools,
translation memory, machine translation), glossary management, rich desktop
and web UI, integrated team translation and communication features.

With all this packed in, I see this as an opportunity to give the project
an infrastructure to build a translation team upon while creating a
continuous translation pipeline and increasing project's code
quality/structure by improving translation integration.

About the external tool, like I said, I'd better be self hosted too. That's
why I've spent many hours this WE looking at Crowdin alternatives and
specifically Weblate.
But again, these are just tools and all the data remain stored and managed
in project's repository.

Hope to send a message about the outcomes of the WE today or tomorrow...


How did you work out what documents had been translated, and which

Indeed, please share your experience and workflow! This is all knew to me
and would greatly benefit from them 🙏

Have a good day folks
