Babel - language insights for Drupal 8

Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

Drupal 8 comes with interface translation, configuration translation and content translation built in. But how do you know what is used to build each page? Did you know that when you edit a content entity, all three are involved in building the page in their own realms? This modules helps figure out what comes from where and to fill the blanks in translation.

Features already available:

Displays list of interface strings, config files and content entities used to build the page
Links to their relevant translation editing UI on a best effort basis (should be improved)

Exciting possible features:

Data collection on interface strings used on admin and frontend pages and filtering for their known use on your site
Data collection on frequency of use of translations (all 3 types) so you know which ones to prioritize to keep correct
Data collection on attempted use of missing translations so you can fill in the blanks

This is a proof of concept module for now in need of considerable cleanup but is already doing a lot of things.
