what it does

jamovi-i18n creates, updates and compiles translation files.

j18n --create code [--home path]

This will create a new 'code'.po file from the current catalog.pot file and place it in the translations directory.

j18n --build [--home path]

This will create a .json translation file in the build directory for each .po file in the translations directory. The .json translation file uses the jed1.x format. Information about the jed format can be found here. https://messageformat.github.io/Jed/

j18n --update [--home path]

This will extract strings from the code and update the .po files and the manifest.pot file in the translations directory. This will not update the .json files with the updated translations.
