Internationalisation at Kapten
summary
Kapten internationalized their Android app by changing data and tooling: they store timestamps in UTC with separate timezones for client-side display, switched from Google Sheets to JSON-backed translation files plus a lightweight i18n SDK that handles plurals and explicit placeholders, and automated translation updates by having Fastlane open PRs for locale files. They handle distance formatting with a locale rule set to switch miles/kilometres, units, and thresholds, and use feature flags via Flagueurs for geo-specific rules.
