Translating zod errors with next-intl
When starting a new project with Next.js these days, next-intl and zod are my go to libraries for internationalization and schema validation, respectively. Of course, when using zod for client-facing validations I would like to translate potential error messages. The package zod-i18n can be used to achieve this for i18next, a popular alternative internationalization library. This means that by using this library as starting point one can quickly achieve zod translation with next-intl.

Top 20 Frontend Interview Questions With Answers
The best way to implement internationalization is to use an internationalization framework library, such as i18next. With this kind of library, you can easily handle translations and automatically display your frontend labels in the user's language. The frontend application also needs to be flexible and easily configurable so that its layout can change accordingly, reading from left to right or right to left. CSS allows this with the rtl and ltr CSS direction property.

Reactive translation/i18n
For reference, I am using i18next for providing translations, which is configured to use the english message string as a key for the translations and fallback to it if no translation is found in the chosen language. I also use the official svelte-i18next integration. It wraps the i18next object in a Svelte store and, among other things, provides reactivity when the language is changed.

Supercharge Your TypeScript App: Mastering i18next for Type-Safe Translations
As our world becomes increasingly interconnected, the development of web applications that cater to a global audience takes precedence among developers. If you're a TypeScript developer, you're likely acquainted with the advantages of static typing and the assurance it provides in your codebase. When it comes to internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n), maintaining the same level of type safety becomes crucial. This is precisely where i18next, an influential i18n framework, enters the picture.
