Translation files are created automatically while you develop your piece.
|
|
|
|
Add your piece to [AP_DEV_PIECES](/developers/development-setup/local) and run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each time you make changes to your piece, a translation file will be generated.
|
|
Look for this message in your terminal: `Translation file for piece created in <piece_folder>/src/i18n/translation.json`
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Translate">
|
|
Create a file named `<piece_folder>/src/i18n/<locale>.json` and translate the values from the translation file.
|

<Tip>
|
|
For open source pieces, you can use the [Crowdin project](https://crowdin.com/project/activepieces) to translate to different languages. These translations will automatically sync back to your code.
