Project Fluent
Fluent.js is a JavaScript implementation of Project Fluent, a localization
framework designed to unleash the expressive power of the natural language.
Project Fluent keeps simple things simple and makes complex things possible.
The syntax used for describing translations is easy to read and understand. At
the same time it allows, when necessary, to represent complex concepts from
natural languages like gender, plurals, conjugations, and others.
Packages
Fluent.js consists of a set of packages which have different use-cases and can
be installed independently of each other.
You can install each of the above packages via npm, e.g. npm install @fluent/react.
See the end of this README for instructions on how to build fluent.js locally.
Learn the FTL syntax
FTL is a localization file format used for describing translation resources.
FTL stands for Fluent Translation List.
FTL is designed to be simple to read, but at the same time allows to represent
complex concepts from natural languages like gender, plurals, conjugations,
and others.
hello-user = Hello, { $username }!
Read the Fluent Syntax Guide in order to learn more about the syntax. If
you’re a tool author you may be interested in the formal EBNF grammar.

Get Involved
Fluent.js is open-source, licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0. We
encourage everyone to take a look at our code and we’ll listen to your
feedback.
Local Development
Hacking on fluent.js is easy! To quickly get started clone the repo:
$ git clone https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent.js.git
$ cd fluent.js
You’ll need at least Node.js 20.19.
Older versions are not supported.
Install the dependencies used by all packages, which are managed as
npm workspaces:
$ npm install
Build and test all packages at once:
$ npm run dist
…which is equivalent to:
$ npm run clean
$ npm run build --workspaces
$ npm run lint
$ npm run test
$ npm run docs
Each package may also be built separately by running npm run build in
its directory.
