What types of code elements and placeholders does Localazy recognize?

Localazy’s placeholder detection system works with virtually all common placeholder formats used in software development. This includes HTML/XML tags, React-style JSX elements, iOS and Android string format specifiers (%s, %d, etc.), ICU MessageFormat patterns ({name}), JavaScript template literals, printf-style formatting, and custom variable patterns specific to different frameworks and languages.

The system is designed to be framework-agnostic, so whether you’re using Angular, React, Vue, iOS Swift, Android Kotlin, or any other technology stack, Localazy will automatically recognize your code elements. This flexibility means you don’t need to modify your existing code patterns or add special markup for Localazy to understand what needs protection during translation.

If the placeholders in your project are not supported, feel free to contact us, we constantly expand the detection with new syntax.
