## What it is
Weblate is a libre, web-based continuous localization platform with tight version control (Git, Mercurial) integration, built in Python/Django. It lets translators collaborate on software translations with quality checks, translation memory, and automatic commits back to the repository.

## Use cases
- translate my app into multiple languages
- manage localization files with git integration
- crowdsource translations for an open-source project
- continuous localization tied to my development workflow
- web-based translation tool with quality checks
- self-host a translation management system
- convert and sync gettext, JSON, or XLIFF translation files

## When to choose
- you need continuous localization synced with your version control
- you want translator attribution and quality checks built in
- you need support for many file formats (gettext, JSON, XLIFF, properties, etc.)
- you want a self-hosted or hosted TMS with an API

## When to avoid
- you only need simple string extraction without a web platform
- you need a lightweight CLI-only translation workflow
- you cannot run a Python/Django web service and database
