The localization server is a set of Drupal modules powering https://localize.drupal.org/, https://translate.openatrium.com/, http://localize.openpublishapp.com/ among other translation communities.

It provides a generic translation database backend with a community localization user interface, which allows people to collaborate on translating projects to different languages. It currently contains tools to translate Drupal projects as well as general Gettext based sources.

Drupal 7 version

This is the current version in production at https://localize.drupal.org/, which should shortly be replaced by a Drupal 10 port (see below).

This module converts node bodies and titles written with valid(!) HTML markup to XLIFF (XML Localization Interchange File Format) and back to HTML. You can use Computer Aided Translation (CAT) tools to support your content translation process.

Note that this module is in the very early stages, and there are several limitations. Testing and improvements (patches) are very much welcome!
