Locale-bound Translator

Problem

Implement locale-bound translator in a production-friendly way with @vielzeug/i18nit while keeping setup and cleanup explicit.

Runnable Example

The snippet below is copy-paste runnable in a TypeScript project with @vielzeug/i18nit installed.

ts
const fr = i18n.withLocale('fr');
const de = i18n.withLocale('de');

console.log(fr.t('greeting', { name: 'Alice' }));
console.log(de.t('greeting', { name: 'Alice' }));

Expected Output

  • The example runs without type errors in a standard TypeScript setup.
  • The main flow produces the behavior described in the recipe title.

Common Pitfalls

  • Forgetting cleanup/dispose calls can leak listeners or stale state.
  • Skipping explicit typing can hide integration issues until runtime.
  • Not handling error branches makes examples harder to adapt safely.
