Show HN: Local, In-Browser i18n Translations (i18nlocale.com)

6 points by codybontecou ↗ HN
Hey HN,

This idea came to me after using ChatGPT to translate my i18n files. It worked well, but it was inconvenient having to specify each language I wanted to be output. Not to mention the token usage.

So, I built this using transformers.js alongside the Xenova/nllb-200-distilled-600M model to enable in-browser translations.

There is no server involved with the translation functionality. The only backend-related code running is authentication to enable a few premium features.

Would love to know your thoughts :)
