# i18n experiment

An experiment at creating an translation library for use with Zig.

One goal is that starting to use this should be as easy as

replacing all instances like `writer.print("...", .{...})`

with `i18n.format(writer, "...", .{...})`

where the format string becomes the key for translation.

Translations are specified in `$LOCALE.def` files so for code like

```zig

i18n.format(writer, "Hello {s}!", .{name});

```

A finnish translation file `fi_FI.def` would contain something like:

```

# Comment explaining something about this translation

def "Hello {%name}!"

    "Moikka {%name}!"

end

```
