When I was developing with nextjs, I realised that I, like everyone else, was spending too much time maintaining multi-language related code while writing the project code, especially when there are a lot of pages, which takes a lot of time, this is something that should be automated (at least in my opinion) and we should have more time to do business related things, what if I created a desktop tool to do this in one click? That's how the project came about, it took me 3 months to complete, I consulted a lot of resources, I had to be busy with work during the day while taking time to develop it at night, I spent I don't know how many nights debugging and testing it, and so far it works great and it's helped a few of my friends finish their own products as well. I invite you to take a look at the product, it's free, what features do you think are missing from this tool when you first look at it? Please let me know in the comments section, thanks!

Congrats on the launch , @kamjin ! We recently ran into this exact issue while working on multi-language services . We relied on automated translations, but in the languages we know, we noticed some translations were terrible. The scary part is, with languages we don’t know, we wouldn’t even realize if they were messed up. I’ve already told our tech team about AutoI18n. If I have any suggestions or feedback, I’ll definitely share them !

Hello, thank you so much for your feedback. I understand that it can be difficult to ensure the accuracy of translations, especially when we only know a few languages. I apologize that my tool currently doesn't excel in this area—it relies on translation APIs, and while the other features have been thoroughly verified, translation accuracy is still a challenge. However, I hope this won't deter you from continuing to use the product, as I’m actively working on a solution to improve this aspect. I believe that integrating AI to better understand the context of the content could significantly enhance translation quality. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at support@autoi18n.dev. I’d appreciate it if you could keep an eye on the tool, and I’ll do my best to improve it as quickly as possible! Thanks again for your valuable input!

This sounds like a game changer for Next.js developers! @kamjin, I'm curious about the desktop tool's automation capabilities. How does it handle different language formats or custom translations? In your experience, what was the most challenging aspect of the development process? Would love to hear more!

@awesomeyang, thank you very much! Let me try to answer some questions: When we talk about making a project multilingual, it's usually reflected at the code level. Different languages are extracted into separate JSON files, each with the same keys. The program then packages these files and, depending on the access routes, references the correct language. The code remains the same for different languages—for example, using the t function to reference the same key in different languages. The tool handles this process automatically during runtime, so we just need to enjoy the results. As for custom translations, the tool doesn’t directly support them in the traditional sense. Custom translations usually involve manually searching the code and modifying the specific language file. This process doesn’t affect other languages or future updates, unless you make changes to the default language text. If you only want to change the program's text content, this can be done efficiently through the tool's JSON editor. I recommend giving it a try! The main challenge: I created this tool because debugging in JavaScript, especially in cross-platform desktop software development, can be quite cumbersome. It significantly reduces development efficiency, often requiring extensive log printing for debugging. This process demands focused attention, and any interruptions can lead to bugs. I will continue to work on improving the tool to make it more useful and practical. Thanks again for your support!

Congrats on the launch, @kamjin! It's awesome to see a tool that automates i18n for Next.js projects. The time savings on multi-language maintenance will be huge for many developers.

@blankwebdev You are right that we should use our time to do more efficient things rather than boring things, but while proving that, the next thing I need to think about is how to make multilingual translation results more satisfying, thank you!

Great initiative, @kamjin! I can totally relate to the pain of handling multi-language setups in Next.js. Your desktop tool sounds like a game-changer for automating this tedious process. I appreciate the effort and time you've invested to help the dev community. Looking forward to testing it out! As for features, perhaps integrating more visual previews of translations could be useful? Let's keep the feedback coming! #Makers #Nextjs #i18n

@boyso I am very grateful to you for your useful suggestion ‘Integrate more visual translation previews’! This feature sounds great and useful, it should solve the need to adjust the translation again if you are not satisfied with the result, but I haven't thought about more interface features and effects yet, and I lack some inspiration. Can we talk more about this?
