Strapi is a very promising piece of tech that enables great productivity and helps us with the data required for building sites using static website generators.

I wonder why I've got downvoted. It might sound like and advertisement but it's actually true.

We use Strapi in production alongside Eleventy, a simple static website generator.

One thing we've been missing with Strapi however is the possibility to localize content. I know the issue was raised but I'm not aware of any roadmap and we needed to hack our way around this limitation.

I'm currently feeling the pain of missing localization support and I'm considering building a service to add and automate it. DM @handheld on Twitter if you'd like to weigh in on features.

I'm using Strapi & 11ty too. I have 'pages' and 'posts' with properties 'content' and 'locale'. That's how I manage i18n. That's for the main content. For small strings used in other parts of the UI I'm using json files with i18n strings that 11ty injects into the views.
