Mojito

Mojito is a continuous localization platform for collecting source strings, managing translations, reviewing localized content, and generating translated resources.

Minimal setup

Install a Java 21 JDK, then run:

git clone https://github.com/ja-openai/mojito.git
cd mojito
./mvnw -Pno-local-config -DskipTests install
java -jar webapp/target/mojito-webapp-*-exec.jar

Open http://localhost:8080/login and sign in with admin / ChangeMe.

The Maven wrapper downloads the project's pinned Node.js and npm versions and builds the frontend. Mojito uses an in-memory database by default; MySQL and Docker are not required to get started.

For persistent MySQL, OpenSearch, or the complete Docker Compose API/worker stack, see the optional setup in the contributor quick start.

For live frontend development, restart the application with --l10n.security.authenticationType=HEADER,DATABASE, then run:

source webapp/use_local_npm.sh
npm --prefix webapp/frontend run dev

The Vite frontend is available at http://localhost:5173/.

The same guide covers development commands, tests, and optional Codex-assisted setup.

Project layout

• webapp/frontend: React, TypeScript, and Vite frontend.
