How to manage localization and internationalization (i18n) work?
Manage i18n work by creating language-specific labels (lang:es, lang:fr), tracking string extraction as development tasks, coordinating with translators through dedicated columns, and documenting i18n guidelines in NoteVault. Treat translation as a workflow stage before release, not an afterthought.

## Guidelines for Developers
- Use i18n keys, never hardcode strings
- Provide context comments
- Handle pluralization properly
- Support RTL for future locales
- Test with pseudo-localization
## Translation Process
1. Strings extracted weekly
2. Translators have 3 days
3. Native review 1 day
4. Integration before release

| Metric | What to Measure |
|---|---|
| String coverage | % strings translated per locale |
| Translation turnaround | Days from extract to complete |
| Missing translations | Strings showing in source language |
| Translation quality | Review rejection rate |
