What's Localazy?
Localazy is a continuous localization platform and web-based translation management system (TMS) that strives to make the usually awful software localization and translation experience efficient and enjoyable for individuals and product teams of any size.
Why Figma and Localazy?
So you can start localizing your designs in Figma right away!
Localazy Figma Plugin allows you to upload all the text content from your Figma files to Localazy, translate the content into as many languages as you want, and then download translated content back to Figma to create localized designs quickly.
All the texts uploaded to Localazy are also immediately ready to be transferred into your mobile/web projects or other types of client UIs for a streamlined multilingual development experience.
