Data internationalization in Django
summary
Compares seven actively maintained libraries (including django-parler django-modeltranslation django-nece django-hvad django-i18nfield) and makes concrete claims: three storage strategies — separate table, per-language columns, JSON field — with tradeoffs spelled out (joins are normalized and costly on reads; columns avoid joins but require migrations; JSON is flexible but limits indexing unless using Postgres). Provides a simple benchmark, a demo app that stores and reads many objects, notes which libraries are postgres-only, and shows form/admin differences and real performance numbers.
