Multilingual PhraseBook šŸ“–

Hey everyone!

I’m excited to share my latest project—Multilingual Phrasebook. This app is a digital version of a phrasebook, where you can flip through various phrases (ą¤®ą„ą¤¹ą¤¾ą¤µą¤°ą„‡) as if you're reading a real book. It’s designed to help users explore and learn phrases in multiple languages with ease.

But what makes this even more special is that the app supports real-time language switching, thanks to Tolgee. With just a click, you can change the entire book’s language without refreshing the page, making it accessible to users from around the globe.

Why I Chose Tolgee 🌐

Tolgee is a powerful open-source localization tool that simplifies the process of making multilingual apps. It allows developers to easily manage translations, and with Tolgee integrated into this phrasebook, users can experience a smooth and intuitive way to switch between languages while browsing the phrases.

What the Multilingual Phrasebook Does šŸ“š

Interactive Book of Phrases:

The app presents phrases like an actual book, where you can flip through pages using navigation buttons. As you move forward or backward, a new phrase appears on each page.

Multiple Language Support:

The coolest part is that this book is multilingual! Users can select their preferred language from a dropdown menu, and Tolgee ensures that the entire phrasebook updates in real-time to the chosen language.

Smooth Navigation:

Just like a real book, users can seamlessly turn to the next or previous page. This allows for easy exploration of phrases without overwhelming the user.

Elegant UI with Page Flip Animation:

To make the experience more engaging, the app includes smooth page-turning animations that feel like flipping through a real book.

How Tolgee Enhances Localization šŸ› ļø

  • Real-time Language Switching: Users can switch between languages, and the app will automatically update all text and content in the selected language—no need to refresh the page or reload anything.

  • Easy Translation Management: Tolgee offers a built-in translation tool that made it easy for me to add and manage phrases in different languages, all from within the app.

  • Developer-friendly Integration: Tolgee integrates perfectly with modern web technologies like React, making the localization process simple and intuitive.
