react-native-localize VS awesome-i18n

{I18n.t("hello")} https://github.com/zoontek/react-native-localize

Translation isn't really a react native specific issue, the web/react also needs to be able to support this. You shouldn't need anything fancy to translate, but strings would need to be localized via https://github.com/zoontek/react-native-localize or https://github.com/globalizejs/globalize. With regards to translating the library, you can either use https://github.com/ds300/patch-package to localize all the strings for your own use or submit a PR to the library. I am also assuming that you have no flexibility on what text is being displayed when using the libraries' API (ex: headerTitle in react-navigation) because in that case it is related to translating your own app.

If you are thinking about adding multi language and internationalization to a website or app you should learn about L10N and I18N and a host of other confusing acronyms. There are many resources for assisting with the process with many pre-translated databases for common actions for many languages and frameworks.

There are many tools available. Most of big companies use an online i18n service such as Lokalize to create keys, and let dedicated teams add translations in multiple languages. Then, the devs just update the app's json thanks to a script that download and format to json all online translations. Then, you can use any lib you want.

I use FormatJS or i18next but there are much more option out there. I recently created a curated list of resources for i18n. Check it on Github: https://github.com/jpomykala/awesome-i18n
