How does the skill handle technical AI terminology?

It includes specific rules to keep domain-specific words like 'Token', 'API', and 'Prompt' in English or uses preferred technical mappings in languages like Chinese to ensure accuracy.

Which languages does this localization skill support?

It provides comprehensive guidelines for 22 locales including Arabic, Czech, German, English, Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), and more.

Does it support React-based user interfaces?

Yes, it includes specific implementation standards for React i18next patterns, including the useTranslation hook and the Trans component for complex embedded elements.
