Update Translations Without Redeploying: Runtime Loading, Caching, and Why Users See Stale Strings

How to change the text of a web or mobile app without shipping a new release: load translations at runtime instead of bundling them, and understand the caches (browser, service worker, localStorage, CDN) that decide when users actually see the change. Covers i18next backends, Cache-Control, the usual reasons translations do not update after a deploy, and when bundling is still the right call.

Git-synced translations vs runtime delivery: which one fits your CI/CD pipeline?Guides

Git-synced translations vs runtime delivery: which one fits your CI/CD pipeline?

Translation files kept in git and synced through CI, translations loaded from a CDN at runtime, or both? How each architecture works end to end, an honest decision table (who edits, release cadence, SSR and offline, pull-request review, rollback, CDN cost, confidential strings, native mobile), how teams run it today, and what neither approach solves.

The EU AI Act transparency Code of Practice: who signed, and what it means for translated contentGuides

The EU AI Act transparency Code of Practice: who signed, and what it means for translated content

As of September 9, 2026, the European Commission's Code of Practice on transparency of AI-generated content lists 83 provider and 152 deployer signatories, and the list keeps growing. What the Code is, what signing commits a company to, why not signing is not non-compliance, and what it changes, and does not change, for machine- and AI-translated websites and apps under Article 50.

What is continuous localization? Definition, workflow, and what it does not meanGuides

What is continuous localization? Definition, workflow, and what it does not mean

Continuous localization is a translation workflow that runs in parallel with development: new strings flow from the code to translators or AI automatically, and approved translations reach the running application without a release. The definition, the four stages, how it differs from batch localization, what you need before it works, and what it does not solve.

What is a translation glossary? Definition, examples, and how it is enforcedGuides

What is a translation glossary? Definition, examples, and how it is enforced

A translation glossary is the list of terms a product must translate the same way every time, with the approved translation per language. What belongs in one (preferred, allowed and forbidden terms), how it differs from a style guide and from a translation memory, why machine and AI translation need it more than human translators do, how it is enforced with automated checks, how teams build one, and what it does not fix.

When coding agents translate your app: what breaks, what to keepGuides

When coding agents translate your app: what breaks, what to keep

AI coding agents now add translation keys and draft the translated strings as part of a code change, with more context than most translators ever get. What they do well, what does not carry over time (consistency across releases, review and provenance, terminology governance, QA over the whole corpus), how teams handle it today, and the agent-in-the-loop pattern that keeps the speed without losing the record.

Managing translation files without manual JSON editingGuides

Managing translation files without manual JSON editing

Nobody decides to hand-edit translation files; teams end up there. What translation file management means, why JSON, YAML and resx files turn into merge conflicts, drift and keys nobody owns, how teams handle it today (code editors, spreadsheets, CI sync, a TMS, coding agents), what removing the manual editing does not solve, and where Locize fits.

Translation QA: What Actually Breaks in Translations, and How to Catch It AutomaticallyGuides

Translation QA: What Actually Breaks in Translations, and How to Catch It Automatically

Most translation defects are not bad language, they are mechanical: a dropped placeholder, a broken HTML tag, a number that changed, the same term translated three different ways. What translation QA means, which errors appear in real translation data, what manual review keeps missing, and how automated linguistic checks catch the mechanical layer so human reviewers can focus on meaning.

Many Projects, One Team: Access and Billing When Localization Outgrows One AppGuides

Many Projects, One Team: Access and Billing When Localization Outgrows One App

The second app is where translation management quietly breaks: the same people re-invited everywhere, offboarding by memory, one invoice per project, and no answer to "who can change the German copy?". What the account layer above your projects has to do, and how organizations in Locize do it.
