## What it is
i18n Ally is an all-in-one internationalization (i18n) extension for VS Code that supports many popular frameworks and locale file formats. It provides inline annotations, translation management, missing-translation reporting, and machine translation directly in the editor.

## Use cases
- manage translation files in vs code
- find missing i18n keys in my project
- extract hardcoded strings into translations
- machine translate locale files
- inline preview of translated strings while coding
- review translations across multiple locales
- support vue-i18n and i18next in editor

## When to choose
- you develop localized web apps in VS Code with frameworks like Vue, React, Angular, or i18next
- you want inline annotations and quick actions for locale keys
- you need to manage and review many locale files in one place

## When to avoid
- you use an editor other than VS Code
- you need a full translation management platform rather than an editor extension
- your project uses an unsupported i18n framework or file format
