Overview
A Flutter package that generates localization files from Google Sheets, enabling seamless internationalization for Flutter apps. It automates the process of syncing translations stored in a shared Google Sheet with Dart localization files, reducing manual effort and minimizing errors. The generator supports multiple languages and integrates directly into the Flutter development workflow via a simple command-line interface. Ideal for teams collaborating on multilingual content without requiring deep technical knowledge of localization setup.
