fluent VS DTTableViewManager

Tried BoldVoice right now and almost immediately hit a bit of awkwardness: “Tomorrow, we’ll work on Practice your consonant skills”. Usually I wouldn’t complain about this sort of thing, but in a language learning app it seems unfortunate. (Mozilla’s Project Fluent[1] was built to handle these situations in a localization setting, but you can probably get away with something much simpler.)

Hi! Thank you for your critique!

> 1) “Your knight has killed a dragon with a crossbow”

We have a proposal for dynamic references to address this problem - https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent/issues/80 - it's non-trivial but I hope we'll see it solved in Fluent and/or in MessageFormat 2.

> 2) The parser is extremely sensitive

True. It's on purpose. We wanted to start with strict and loosen, rather than the opposite.

> 3) The input files mandate a weird arrangement of new lines for even the simplest branching

Same as above.

> 4) The documentation is too Spartan to know what happens in edge cases.

We're a small team :)

I'm sorry to hear it doesn't work for you. I'm relieved that your criticism is seems more subjective except of one missing feature that no other l10n system has as of yet.

11.0 is a next major release of DTTableViewManager and DTCollectionViewManager frameworks, bringing not one, but two SwiftUI integrations, support for datasource prefetching, enhanced macCatalyst support, as well as updates for iOS 16 / tvOS 16 SDK.
