Checkout more screenshots here: #2
yarn add react-ridge-translations
or
npm install react-ridge-translations --save
We were frustrated with the API of other libraries and wanted a more type safe alternative for template tags
- React / React Native
- Simple
- Fast
- Very tiny (400 bytes)
- 100% Typesafe
- Hooks
- Use outside React components
// translate.ts
import { createTranslations } from "react-ridge-translations";
// first describe which languages are allowed/required (Typescript)
type TranslationLanguages = {
nl: string;
fr: string;
be: string;
};
// create a translation object with your translations
const translate = createTranslations<TranslationLanguages>()(
{

fallback: "en",
