This project provides a JavaScript library for automatic website translation, enabling multi-language support with minimal integration effort. It targets web developers and site owners looking to enhance international accessibility and SEO without complex i18n configurations or API keys.

How It Works

The library injects a small JavaScript snippet into a webpage, which then scans the DOM for text content and translates it on the fly using AI. It employs a multi-layered caching and preloading mechanism for near-instantaneous translation, avoiding the perceived slowness of large language models. The approach prioritizes ease of use, flexibility, and SEO compatibility by not altering the original HTML source.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Insert the following script tag before the closing </html> tag:

  <script type="text/javascript" src="https://res.zvo.cn/translate/inspector_v2.js"></script>
  

• No specific prerequisites are mentioned beyond a standard web browser environment.

Highlighted Details

• Supports automatic language detection based on user preference and location.
• Offers extensive customization options for translation behavior, UI elements, and specific content exclusion.
• Enables private deployment of translation services, including integration with custom or local large language models.
• Claims to be SEO-friendly, as search engine crawlers access the original HTML source.

Maintenance & Community

The project is actively maintained by xnx3, with a significant user base indicated by high request volumes on their translation service CDN. Community interaction is encouraged via QQ groups and Telegram.

Licensing & Compatibility

Licensed under the MIT license, permitting free commercial use and distribution.

Limitations & Caveats

While the core functionality is straightforward, the extensive customization options might require a learning curve. The project relies on external translation services, and the performance and availability of these services are critical. The README mentions a separate "enterprise-grade stable translation" channel, implying potential tiered service offerings.
