Integrate Nuxt.js

with Localazy within minutes.

There is no hard limit at the moment, but it’s recommended to keep the size of each individual item under 4kB. This corresponds to 4,000 characters encoded as UTF-8 and 2,000 characters encoded as UTF-16. Uploading longer texts won’t yield any errors, but might get refused by some external translation engines integrated in Localazy.

If you come across this issue, it is likely because you have exceeded your account’s source key limit or the changes you made haven’t been published yet. To resolve this, please go to the Billing section of your account to check your source key limit and consider upgrading if necessary. Additionally, you can visit your Project Activity Stream to verify if the project has been published.

We do not offer refunds. Please read Terms & Conditions of Localazy before purchase.

While many digital product makers choose machine translations for the very start (and it’s a standard best practice for early stages of development where MT-pre translate is a rational decision), they often forget that machine translation alone yields subpar results.

It’s vital to focus on the highest possible quality of translation when it comes to product interfaces and product marketing. But enlisting professional translators is not a silver bullet solution. You need to be diligent and prepare a sound basis for successful localization.

These are best practices to ensure the best translation quality:

• Read how to Make your translators happy to cooperate
• Prepare your glossary
• Prepare your style guides
• Upload screenshots of your product to improve the context
• Make sure there are multiple rounds of quality assurance. You can e.g., follow the first round of translations with proofreading.
• Perform thorough localization testing

In Localazy, every key can be in different states, which makes it invisible from the translation process.

• Hidden: Hidden keys are not available to translators, but other than that, they are processed the same way as all the others. They are also exported in the output file.

Keys are automatically marked hidden under certain circumstances - when the source language translation is empty or when they are linked to another one using our Duplicity Linking feature.

• Deprecated: Deprecated keys are invisible in the translation process and are not exported in the output file. Under certain circumstances, they can be exported for our Android/iOS SDK when the update is required from the older version of the app. If the key reappears in the input data, it’s restored along with its complete state (context, translation, contributors, etc.)

• Deleted: Deleted keys are removed with all their data - comments, translations, screenshot linking, contributors’ history, etc. Once the key is deleted, it’s no longer counted against the key limit, and it’s impossible to restore it.

If you are running over the source key limit, you can consider deleting deprecated keys. However, be sure that deleted keys are no longer necessary for your project, as you cannot restore them if needed, and all the associated data is also deleted.

It’s not only about the translations you can easily store and restore if needed when using deprecated keys instead of deleting them, but also about context information, comments, user interactions, etc. Once the key is deleted, it’s no longer counted against the key limit, and it’s impossible to restore it.

You can either disable or delete a language if you no longer need it.

Disabling a language hides it from the translation interface but retains all translations and keys. On the other hand, deleting a language completely removes it from the project, optionally including all translations, keys, and associated metadata.

To delete a language in Localazy:

1. Go to the language list of your project and use the three dots menu next to the language you want to delete.
2. Hover your cursor over the three dots to reveal several options, including the “Delete language” option.
3. Click and confirm.

It’s important to note that deleting a language is permanent and can’t be undone. It’s recommended to double-check and ensure that the language deletion is intentional and necessary. Disabling a language may be a better option if you are unsure whether you’ll need the language in the future.

When working with external translators or agencies that are used to their own solution for translating, you may need a few extra features - language statistics and import/export.

You can find both of them in a single place - in our console. As you may already know, the console is our place for features that are relevant to a small subset of our users only and for features that are still being heavily improved over time. We are committed to making Localazy better every single day, so your feedback is welcomed. Feel free to share all your suggestions with us!

Exporting content for use by external tools #️⃣

Some translation agencies are used to work with their own solution. There are numerous reasons for it - e.g., it helps them to calculate rewards for their translators and contractors. We are prepared for it, and you can easily export all your texts or only the untranslated ones as a CSV file, which any agency should easily be able to use.

Please note that we don’t recommend this for a variety of reasons - it adds extra manual work, and you also need to ensure that the agency has all the necessary context information in order to provide a high-quality translation. You wouldn’t need to care about it while using Localazy directly.

However, if there is no other way around it, here are a few simple steps on how to do it:

• Add the required language to your project
• Export your project as a CSV file using the Import/Export option in the Console
• Exchange the file with your translation agency
• Import the file back to Localazy
• And that’s it!

To change the source language of your project in Localazy, follow the steps outlined below:

1. Navigate to the Project Settings - General Settings
2. Scroll down to Advanced Settings
3. Find the field Project source language and click on the ✏️ pencil icon.

A modal window appears asking you how and to which language you would like to change the source language.

You have two options here.

Set another fully translated language as the new source #️⃣

Select this option if you already have another language that is fully translated and you want to swtich its place with the current source language. You can choose any fully translated language in your project and the previous source language will continue to be treated as the normal Localazy language.

Transfer the current source content to a new source language #️⃣

Sometimes, it happens that your source files are in en_GB but you would like to use simply en while keeping the content intact. Select this option to preserve the current source content but change the source locale code.

You can either choose a blank language or an existing hidden language. When changing the source to a language that is currently hidden, its data is purged first.
