This project provides frontend plugins for automatic web page translation, targeting developers building multi-language applications with frameworks like Vue and React. It simplifies internationalization by automatically detecting and translating text content without requiring source code modifications, supporting various translation services and build tools.

How It Works

The plugin integrates with build tools (Webpack, Vite, Rollup) to scan project files for translatable text. It leverages configurable translator services (Youdao, Google, Baidu, Volcengine, or custom) to translate detected strings. The translated content is then managed in language files, allowing for dynamic language switching within the application.

• Install via npm/yarn: npm install vite-auto-i18n-plugin --save-dev or webpack-auto-i18n-plugin --save-dev.
• Requires Node.js.
• Google Translate may require proxy configuration for users in certain regions.
• Youdao, Baidu, and Volcengine translators require API key applications.
• Official documentation and example projects are available.
