Project goals

Web based translation with tight git integration supporting a wide range of file formats, makes it easy for translators to contribute.

The translations should be kept within the same repository as the source code and the translation process should closely follow development.

There is no plan in heavy conflict resolution as these should be primarily handled on the git side.

Project name

The project's name is a portmanteau of words web and translate.
