## What it is
Django-Rosetta is a Django application that eases the translation process of Django projects by providing a web interface for editing gettext catalogs (po and mo files). It installs with a single entry in INSTALLED_APPS and supports automatic translations via services like DeepL, OpenAI, and Google Translate.

## Use cases
- translate my django project strings
- edit po files through a web ui
- manage gettext catalogs for django
- machine-translate django translations
- update translation catalogs without leaving the browser

## When to choose
- you have a Django project needing translation management
- you want a quick-to-install translation editor with no database tables
- you want automatic suggestions from translation APIs

## When to avoid
- your project is not Django-based
- you need a standalone translation tool outside a web app
- you need full TMS features like workflows or teams

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: stable
- function: internationalization, web-framework
- domain: web-development
- platform: python
- tags: django, gettext, translation, i18n, po-files, localization, web-server
