Guides for the people building with nlit

Pick the surface you work in — the CLI for shipping translations into your app, or the Figma plugin for designing with real copy.

For developers

Install, authenticate, and pull translations into your repo. Covers .nlit.yaml, file formats, platform tags, and CI/CD wiring.

For UX writers & designers

Browse approved copy, link text layers to translation keys, and sync updates back into your file. Create new keys from selected text.

For

Install the CLI once, run nlit pull in CI, ship the same approved copy everyone else already sees in Figma and the platform.

For

Edit copy in the platform with full context — descriptions, screenshots, plural forms. Designers and engineers pick up the change automatically.

For

Use the Figma plugin to drop real, in-language strings onto canvas. No more lorem ipsum, no manual paste from a spreadsheet.
