First Translation

Translate your React or Next.js app into any language in minutes.

Prerequisites

• A Babelize account (sign up here)
• A React, Next.js, or Vue project (on GitHub)

Step 1: Create a Project

Creating a project is a simple 5-step process:

1. Repository & Name: Click New Project from the dashboard. Connect your GitHub repository and give your project a name.
2. Languages: Add the target languages you want to translate your application into (e.g., Spanish, French, Japanese). Your source language is automatically detected.
3. Provider: Choose your translation engine. You can use the default Babelize Engine, or Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) to use providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini.
4. GitHub Bot: (Optional) Install the Babelize GitHub App to your repository so Babelize can automatically raise pull requests for you.
5. Confirm: Review all the details and click Create Project.

Step 2: Run Babelize

1. Click Run Babelize on your project page
2. Babelize will:
   • Clone your repository
   • Scan for translatable content
   • Generate translations using AI
   • Run the Modular Architecture pipeline

Step 3: Raise a PR

Once the translation pipeline completes, you can raise a PR to merge the translations into your codebase:

1. Click Raise PR in the dashboard
2. Or use the CLI: babelize pr raise <project-uuid>
3. Babelize creates a pull request on GitHub with the translated files

Step 4: Merge

1. Open the PR on GitHub
2. Review the translated resource files
3. Merge when satisfied

That's it — your app is now multilingual.
