Years ago, I encountered the challenge of allowing users to contribute to translations, especially for languages other than English. We relied on third-party SaaS solutions for an extended period. However, as time passed, we needed to explore a custom solution crafted to our evolving business model and software requirements.

That’s how I started working on what we now know as LesliBabel – a simple yet useful engine for handling translations. No need to tinker with yml or json files. More importantly for my users, it comes with a friendly web interface and updates in real-time.

Now, LesliBabel is fully open-source, integrated into the Lesli Framework ecosystem. You can explore a brief introduction (and check out the online demo) here: https://www.lesli.dev/engines/babel/

The first stable version of Lesli (following its open-source release) is coming!
