Internationalization for react done right. Using the i18next i18n ecosystem.
The react-i18next package is a powerful internationalization framework for React / React Native which is based on i18next. It provides a way to translate your application into multiple languages, handle plurals and formatting, and manage translations.
Translation
This feature allows you to translate text in your React components using the `t` function provided by the `useTranslation` hook.
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
function MyComponent() {
const { t } = useTranslation();
return <p>{t('keyForTranslation')}</p>;
}
Language Switching
This feature enables you to switch languages on the fly within your application by calling the `changeLanguage` method.
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
function ChangeLanguageButton() {
const { i18n } = useTranslation();
return (
<button onClick={() => i18n.changeLanguage('de')}>Change to German</button>
);
}
Pluralization
This feature allows you to handle plural forms in translations depending on the count provided.
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
function MyComponent({ count }) {
const { t } = useTranslation();
return <p>{t('keyForPlural', { count })}</p>;
}
Formatting
This feature allows you to format dates, numbers, and other values within your translations.
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
function MyComponent({ date, number }) {
const { t } = useTranslation();
return (
<div>
<p>{t('formattedDate', { date })}</p>
<p>{t('formattedNumber', { number })}</p>
</div>
);
}
Namespaces
This feature allows you to organize your translations into namespaces, making it easier to manage large translation files.
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
function MyComponent() {
const { t } = useTranslation('namespace1');
return <p>{t('namespace1:keyForTranslation')}</p>;
}
LinguiJS is a readable, automated, and optimized (5 kb) internationalization for JavaScript. It is similar to react-i18next but uses a different API and has its own macro syntax for defining translations.
React Intl is part of FormatJS which provides internationalization support for React applications. It is similar to react-i18next in providing translations and formatting but uses a different API, including components like <FormattedMessage> and <FormattedNumber>.
This package provides a component for React that utilizes the Counterpart translation library. It is less feature-rich compared to react-i18next and is more suitable for simpler applications that do not require advanced features like pluralization or namespace support.
React Localize Redux provides localization support for React/Redux applications. It integrates with Redux for state management of translations and locale data, which is different from react-i18next's approach of using the i18next framework.
Master Branch is the newest version using hooks (>= v10).
$ >=v10.0.0
npm i react-i18next
react-native: To use hooks within react-native, you must use react-native v0.59.0 or higher
For the legacy version please use the v9.x.x Branch
$ v9.0.10 (legacy)
npm i react-i18next@legacy

Before: Your react code would have looked something like:
...
<div>Just simple content</div>
<div>
Hello <strong title="this is your name">{name}</strong>, you have {count} unread message(s). <Link to="/msgs">Go to messages</Link>.
</div>
...
After: With the trans component just change it to:
...
<div>{t('simpleContent')}</div>
<Trans i18nKey="userMessagesUnread" count={count}>
Hello <strong title={t('nameTitle')}>{{name}}</strong>, you have {{count}} unread message. <Link to="/msgs">Go to messages</Link>.
</Trans>
...
