Introduction

The translate system provides a simple and frictionless translation flow for distributed systems and automates many tasks. Developers (or CI/CD tools) send extracted texts for translation to translate system which then can be translated by ML or real translators.

Backend (golang)

Frontend (Angular)

Translation Methods

Translation by translators

Translation by different APIs (ML)

Coding languages and libraries

In general, we build distributed systems with golang, Angular and Flutter. We aim to support these before adding support for other languages and libraries.
