00:00:00 - 00:25:00

This video discusses localizing React Native apps from start to end. It explains how to use different localization libraries, and provides tips on avoiding common mistakes. It also discusses how transit translators can help make the process smoother.

• 00:00:00 Vojtech Novak discusses localizing React Native apps. He discusses some common mistakes made during translation, and provides examples of how different localization libraries can help. He also discusses how transit translators work, and provides a link to a demo app.
• 00:05:00 This video explains how to localize React Native apps from start to end using two different UI frameworks, Fbt and i18x. The first example uses a static string for the current date, while the second example uses a variable to show pluralization support. The third example uses a date at the end of the sentence to show parameter or variable inside of the translation, and the fourth example uses nested text components to show complex sentence translation.
• 00:10:00 This video explains the differences between two translation services: IIT next and FBT. IIT next is more simplistic, while FBT supports multiple formats and has a larger community. There are some drawbacks to both services, but ultimately it depends on the user's needs.
• 00:15:00 Translators can help make the process of localizing a React Native app smoother by providing translation memory and quality assurance tools.
• 00:20:00 The main mistakes made when localizing React Native apps are missing translations, missing message context, and missing transitions. To avoid these mistakes, designers should add context at design time and translators should use a translation tool that provides context.
• 00:25:00 This video discusses localization, React Native, and how to localize apps for different languages. It also provides tips on using Intel APIs in React Native.
