Getting started

Welcome! This section walks you through the basics: creating a project, adding languages, importing keys, and shipping translations.

What you’ll do

• Create your first project
• Add one or more languages
• Import or create keys
• Translate values manually or with auto-translate
• Export translations or enable CDN delivery

Before you start

You’ll get the smoothest setup if you already know:

• The format you want to manage (e.g. JSON)
• How your app loads translations today (bundled vs runtime fetch)

If you don’t, no worries — the Quickstart covers the common approach.

Recommended first setup

For most apps, start with:

• Base language: your source language (often en)
• 1–2 additional languages: to validate your workflow
• A small import set (a few files or one namespace) before migrating everything

This helps you verify:

• Key structure and naming
• Export format and nesting
• How updates flow into your app
