Visual editor for Application Resource Bundle localization files to be used with the intl package.
A visual editor for Application Resource Bundle (.arb
) localization files, enabling rapid development. It is specifically designed to be used for Dart and Flutter projects using the intl package.
The editor runs locally on your machine, meaning you can use familiar versioning tools like Git and do not have to upload or download localization files.
Warning: This project is very early in development, use with extreme caution! Make sure you have all important changes committed before trying it out.
