Hi everybody,
I just built a new multilingual website with Weglot. In a few minutes you can have a multilingual website with no codebase changes and a few steps to make.
Here is the demo website : https://multilingual-hugo.com/
And here is the tutorial to do the same : https://dev.to/louisbertin/ultimate-translation-method-for-static-website-generator-in-2020-hugo-4a24
I hope you’ll appreciate!
That’s very interesting. Can you explain what the difference is between Google translate and Webglot? Why not just use on-the-fly Google Translate?
Thanks.
Hi @third_try, good question!
Weglot is based on Google, Deepl and Bing to gives a first translation of all your website pages. Then, you can access your dashboard to see all translations in order to fit exactly to your needs. Weglot also gives you a little piece of JavaScript to have a custom language switcher. You don’t have to code it yourself!
So, your translation has a much better quality than a classic Google translate.
