tree-gettext

This project uses tree-sitter to parse language files for translation strings. It generates a POT file that should be compatible with the output of xgettext and similar utilities.

Supported Languages

• C
• JavaScript
• XML
  • UI files
  • Metainfo files
• .desktop Files

Additional languages can be added using the appropriate Tree Sitter grammar.
