Treat English and Chinese as parallel content sources

How this starter keeps locales aligned so neither language reads like a late translation of the other.

  • i18n
  • content

Each locale owns its wording

Navigation labels, page copy, and form messages live in locale packs. Replace both languages when a public fact changes, not just the one you edited first.

URLs stay predictable

Visitors switch language on the same page path. Keep slugs stable across locales so bookmarks, ads, and sales links do not break after translation work.

Replace messages before improvising in components

User-facing text should stay in translation files or content sources. That keeps AI-assisted edits safe and makes owner review easier.

Proof the switch on real pages

After replacement, open home, products, contact, and blog in both locales. The story should match even when sentence length differs.
