LRM
LRM provides a command line tool and terminal editor for managing .NET resource localization files and translations.
About LRM
LRM (Localization Resource Manager) is a command line tool and interactive terminal UI for managing localization files. Its main focus is .NET .resx resource files, and it also supports JSON, i18next, Android strings.xml, iOS .strings, PO (gettext), and XLIFF formats. Its listed capabilities include validating translations, importing and exporting CSV, adding and removing languages, and scanning code for unused or missing keys. A VS Code extension and a Web UI are also described on the homepage.
LRM Cloud is a separate team platform described on the same page. It offers a web-based editor, role-based team management, GitHub integration, and a Git-style CLI sync. It can be used as a hosted service or self-hosted with Docker. Hosted plans have translation credit limits, and the homepage states that the code is open source. Translation features use external providers, and the homepage does not describe what data those providers receive.
