[Question] Differences / Benefits vs ngx-translate? #333

Closed Zeratoxx closed 1 year ago

Zeratoxx commented 2 years ago

Hi,

I just found your project in my research for a translation package. This project seems well documented. I wonder:

  1. What was the initial inspiration for this project while ngx-translate is so popular?
  2. What are the main differences and/or benefits comparing to ngx-translate?

Thanks, have a great day :)

Hi @Zeratoxx,

1) This project (like ngx-translate) was born when Angular v2 was still in alpha release and it didn't have an official solution to handle the translation, a while ago... At the time, they were called angular2localization and ng2-translate, and you can find the initial differences in this old post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/39118307/6067476

2) More than evaluating the benefits between these libraries, I think you should ask yourself which of these solutions (or others, such as the official i18n solution provided by Angular) is best suited to your project, reading the doc, looking at the examples, and the support offered.

Greetings
