About This Skill
Lingui Best Practices provides a structured approach to adding i18n to React and vanilla JavaScript applications. The skill covers the complete Lingui workflow: wrapping apps with I18nProvider, marking messages with macros (Trans, useLingui, Plural), extracting messages via CLI, translating catalogs, and compiling locales. It includes patterns for handling JSX content, string attributes, lazy translations, pluralization with exact number matching, and locale-aware date/number formatting using the Intl API. Developers learn when to use Trans for JSX, useLingui for non-JSX strings, and msg for module-level constants, plus configuration setup and ESLint plugin integration to prevent common mistakes.
