So who should use GlotPress?
Any developer of software that uses gettext, like WordPress theme or plugin authors. But that’s just the start, anyone who uses a gettext bases system can use GlotPress to help their translators collaborate.
This plugin wouldn’t be possible without all the hard work that has gone in to the standalone version of GlotPress and we’d like to thank all those who contribute to it.
