Missed out on #LocWorld52? No problem! Adam Asnes, Lingoport’s visionary leader, has brought back a wealth of wisdom - now live on our blog! From the potential of AI to the importance of accessibility, Adam explores the future of #localization. Here’s a sneak peek at some of his reflections: 🌐 New technology presents both a challenge and an opportunity. While AI might replace certain roles, it also broadens localization’s reach and impact. 💪 Even a two-person localization team at a global company can drive tremendous impact through effective automation and advocacy. 🌍 Accessibility compliance will soon be required in the EU by 2025, but the need goes beyond regulations. With 1.6 billion people worldwide living with disabilities, accessible design means fostering connection, independence, and inclusion for everyone. These insights are just a few highlights from the LocWorld conference. We’re also grateful to industry experts like Brandon W. Roddey, Marilyn Dickinson, PMP, Aki Hayashi, Carolina Freire, Gabriel Fairman, Shirley Coady, George Jie Zhao, Kirill Solovjov, Fabio Minazzi, David Evan Harris, Marianna Guédez Forgiarini, Josef Kubovský, Megan Sharp, and Min Tan for their valuable contributions, recapped by Adam Asnes.

👻 Boo! What’s more frightening than unhappy international users? Let’s see what you think about #localization with today’s fun and spooky survey! 🎃 P.S. Last week’s quiz was especially challenging, and while we didn’t receive many answers, those we did were all correct! 🎉 Just as a reminder, we asked: Which issues can arise from storing all locales in a single YAML file? The correct answers were: increased file size, merge conflicts, and navigation difficulties. 📂 Yes, all these problems can stem from storing all locales in one YAML file. Well done, everyone! We’re so proud that our community of localization specialists is so knowledgeable. 👏 #SoftwareLocalization #SoftwareDevelopment #i18n #Internationalization #Lingoport

Expanding into global markets is exciting, but creating a solid internationalization (i18n) program? 😨 That’s where the real challenges creep in. 👻 On Halloween, let’s talk about… the thrills and chills of building an i18n program in a large enterprise 👻 🧛♂️ Lucio G. , former Sr. Engineering Manager at Workday, shared some valuable tips in our latest webinar, and we’ve prepared an article based on them! From knowledge gaps in development teams to finding the right tools to tackle i18n challenges, he offers tips to make i18n work. 🎃 Curious to explore Lucio’s full insights? Check them out… if you dare! https://lnkd.in/dUk3TKhT #SoftwareLocalization #SoftwareDevelopment #Internationalization #i18n

🚀 Exciting news! Localyzer Command Center 2.2 is now live! 🚀 We’re thrilled to introduce the latest features in Localyzer Command Center 2.2: 🌐 Smartling integration to provide full visual context, 👀 In-context preview with updated String Manager for accurate translations, and ⏰ Scheduled translations to automate language updates! Check out the full release notes in our latest article. Stay tuned as we continue evolving to support your localization goals! – The Lingoport Team #Lingoport #SoftwareDevelopment #SoftwareLocalization

Last week's question about Unicode didn’t raise any issues, and all participants answered correctly: Unicode's benefit in localization is its support for different character sets and, therefore, languages. Keep it up, guys! 👊 Let's dive into a more technical question today. Have you ever used YAML files? Do you know what issues can arise from storing all locales in a single YAML file? If you find this question too difficult, check the hint in the comments below—we're pretty sure it will help. 🤗 #SoftwareLocalization #SoftwareDevelopment #L10n #Localization #Internationalization #i18n

🎥The recording of last week's webinar with Lucio G. is now ready, and we highly recommend everyone watch it! 🏛Lucio breaks down the real-life challenges of localization in big companies and shares some strategies he used at Workday. ⚙️For example, he talks about why they decided to build their own localization solution instead of buying one: 1. Their team had expertise and resources. 2. Their existing systems were too complicated. 3. A custom-built tool gave them more flexibility. 4. And building their own system matched their long-term plans. Overall, building a custom solution allowed them to manage their localization challenges with greater flexibility. 📈🔥If you really want to boost the localization process in your company, watch the whole recording on our YouTube channel! https://lnkd.in/d8B5asDB #i18n #SoftwareLocalization #L10n #SoftwareDevelopment #Lingoport

Those who work with software #localization usually have to deal with resourse files. Knowing how they’re structured across different programming environments makes it easier to work with them. The article we've recently created will help you avoid common issues that can slow down translation, like messy file setups or poorly organized locales. Read it to expand your knowledge of resource files! #SoftwareLocalization #Internationalization #SoftwareDevelopment #Lingoport

✅ Glossaries were last week’s topic, and ALL our localization pros have mastered it perfectly! Yes, you need glossaries to keep terminology consistent. Great job, everyone! 🎉 Today, we'll focus on one of the most useful concepts in software localization—Unicode. What is its main benefit? 🤔 Leave your votes below, let’s see if you know the correct answer! 💯 #SoftwareLocalization #Unicode #Localization #L10n #Internationalization #Lingoport

Every month, top experts offer their insights on software localization to Lingoport subscribers, and this October is no exception. 📆 On Thursday, October 17, join us for a special webinar about localizing UI strings using a custom-built automation system.
