 sudo apt install translate-toolkit -y

Then you have to execute this command with the .po file as first argument:

pocount myfile.po

Processing file :  myfile.po

The steps to localize the application will be:

  1. Create a configuration file to store the languages that will be used by the application.
  2. Define the default language for the application.
  3. Add the translation functions in the views.
  4. Create the JSON translation files.

  8. Add the controller to receive the change event from the previous selector.
