DevLocaliser – One‑Click Xcode App Localization
Turn your Xcode localization exports into fully translated assets with a single click. DevLocaliser is built for developers who want fast, accurate, and low‑friction translations for xcloc and xliff bundles.
How It Works – Six Simple Steps
1. Export from Xcode – In Xcode choose File → Export Localizations… to create your localization folder for one or more languages.
2. Drag & Drop – Drop that exported folder onto DevLocaliser. The app automatically detects all included xcloc or xliff files.
3. Pick a Translation Service – Choose OpenAI, Gemini, Apple Translate, or a self‑hosted Ollama model, depending on your stack, budget, and privacy needs.
4. Hit Play – DevLocaliser sends only the strings you choose to translate, keeping keys and structure intact while preserving existing translations.
5. Save the Localized Files – The app writes the translated strings back into the file, keeping Xcode’s expected file format and hierarchy.
6. Import to Xcode – Back in Xcode, choose File → Import Localizations… and select the updated file to merge all translations into your project.
Just export, drop, translate, import.
Key Benefits
One‑click localization
Translate an entire xcloc or xliff bundle in one go. Localize new features, whole apps, or incremental updates in minutes instead of hours.
Xcode‑native workflow
DevLocaliser works with Xcode’s built‑in export and import flow, so you keep your existing process: same xcloc/xliff files, same structure, just translated content ready to re‑import.
Choice of translation provider
Use the API you already rely on:
• OpenAI for high‑quality, context‑aware translations
• Gemini for Google’s ecosystem and terminology
• Apple Translate for platform‑native language support
• Self‑hosted Ollama for on‑prem or offline workflows where you control the model
You decide which provider to use per project, based on cost, quality, or data control.
Reliable string handling
DevLocaliser respects placeholders, variables, and keys, helping you avoid broken format strings and layout issues. You keep your identifiers exactly as defined in your .strings and .xliff files.
Scale with your app
Localize feature by feature or entire products. DevLocaliser is built for real‑world Xcode projects with many files and multiple target languages.
