JSON Localization

Quite a lot JavaScript libraries or frameworks exist for localizing an application. Therefore we have defined a standard JSON format.

Use a simple json file to define your translations.

Format

• The json file is used.
• To write a valid JavaScript object (hash), the key does not need to be quoted.
  However, in a valid json file, key and value have to be quoted.
• The placeholder syntax is “{{ placeholder }}”.
• The file can have a flat or hierarchical structure (see examples below).
• comments for segments can be added in the format
  “_<key of the associated segment>.comment=…”
