This guide covers how to add internationalization (i18n) Internationalization is the process of designing and developing websites to support multiple languages and regions. Also known as i18n, internationalization involves creating content structures that can be easily translated and localized for different markets. Rosey is a tool for internationalization (i18n) that helps create multilingual static websites by managing translations and generating localized versions of content. Rosey integrates with CloudCannon for multilingual site management. The Rosey CloudCannon Connector is an optional package that connects Rosey's translation data to the CloudCannon Visual Editor, allowing editors to translate content inline without leaving the Visual Editor. It extends Rosey's build-time translation process with live editing support. CloudCannon's visual editing interface provides a user-friendly way of updating your website files on an interactive preview of your webpage. You can navigate around your website preview using links/buttons, as you would on the live version, and edit your content inline on the page, or with the data panel or sidebar. What you see in the Visual Editor is what your website visitors will see on your live webpages.Internationalization

Visual Editor
This guide is structured in two sections:
- Rosey — install and configure Rosey to build locale-specific versions of your Site
- Rosey CloudCannon Connector — optionally add inline translation editing to the Visual Editor
The Rosey CloudCannon Connector is not required to use Rosey. You can complete the first section and have a fully functional multilingual Site without it.
Before you begin, this guide assumes you already have a static Site connected to CloudCannon.
This is a fresh setup guide. If you're migrating from CloudCannon's deprecated built-in i18n, see the Rosey migration guide instead.
