Kiwi is an end-to-end internationalization (i18n) solution from Alibaba, comprising kiwi-intl (a framework-agnostic runtime library), kiwi-cli (extraction/import/export of translation strings), and kiwi-linter (a VS Code extension). It automates extracting Chinese text from code, syncing translations with translators via Excel, and flagging un-internationalized strings.
Use cases
- extract hardcoded chinese strings from frontend code
- manage i18n translation workflow with translators
- lint code for un-internationalized text
- auto-translate missing locale strings with google translate
- search translations by original text in vscode
- import translated excel files back into the project
When to choose
- building a Chinese-to-multilingual frontend app needing full i18n pipeline
- you want automated extraction, linting, and translator collaboration in one tool
- your team uses VS Code and TypeScript/JavaScript
When to avoid
- you need i18n for a non-JavaScript stack
- you only need a lightweight runtime i18n library without tooling
- your project doesn't involve Chinese source text
