Switch: Add Multiple Languages to Your Site Using Google Spreadsheets

Dealing with multiple languages (aka locales) can be challenging. Having multiple JSON files with hundreds of keys for each language quickly becomes a maintenance nightmare. It is easy to break, adding/removing a key means you have to edit it across all files and make sure you get the right translations.

Wouldn't it be great if we can just provide our translators with a link to a spreadsheet and they could just edit everything on their own and leave us to do the things we love?

Switch is a command-line tool to help get a different view of the same data. It allows you to switch between JSON and CSV with a simple command. You can even automate the process so that it does so automatically on the server without your involvement.
