Figma design completed.
Localized JSON strings ready for engineering in minutes.

Engineering teams need localized UI strings in a structured format — not a comment thread or shared spreadsheet with inconsistent terminology. Claude extracts UI strings from your Figma design via MCP, Lara Translate localizes them with your product terminology enforced, and exports structured JSON files ready for each market.

Localized JSON files

From Figma design system to localized JSON string files for every market.

Claude reads your Figma design file via MCP and extracts all UI strings, preserving component and layer context. Lara Translate localizes each string with your product glossary and translation memory enforced. The output is exported as structured JSON files per target language, formatted for direct integration with your i18n pipeline.

1

Ask Claude to extract and key all UI strings

Claude connects to the Figma design system file via MCP and extracts every text node across all 14 components. It assigns a structured key to each string based on component name and string type, for example, nav.settings.label or form.email.placeholder, ready for use in the engineering i18n framework.

Prompt used:"Read all text nodes in this Figma design system file. Extract every UI string and assign a component-based key to each one. Translate all strings into Spanish and Korean using Lara Translate with Faithful style and the product UI glossary. Export the output as two structured JSON files, es.json and ko.json, keyed by component and string identifier."

Figma returns all 112 strings with component context

Figma returns all 112 text nodes organized by component, button labels in the Button component, validation messages in the Form component, notification copy in the Alert component. Component context is preserved for accurate key assignment.

Lara Translate localizes every string for each target language

Lara Translate localizes all 112 strings into Spanish and Korean using Faithful style, exact meaning, UI-appropriate conciseness, product terminology enforced via glossary. Previously approved strings from earlier design iterations are reused automatically via translation memory, so the JSON output is consistent with existing localized product strings in the codebase.

Claude exports structured JSON translation files for engineering

Claude exports two JSON files, es.json and ko.json, each containing all 112 localized strings keyed by component and string identifier. The files are structured for direct import into standard i18n frameworks (react-i18next, i18next, vue-i18n, or equivalent). Engineering receives handoff-ready translation files, not a Figma comment thread.

Why a Figma comment thread is not an i18n handoff

Leaving translated strings in Figma comment threads or copying them into a shared spreadsheet creates a manual re-extraction step for engineering, each translated string must be found, verified against the correct component, and entered into the i18n file by hand. A single missed string causes a missing key in production. Claude and the Figma MCP server export a structured JSON file that engineering imports directly into the i18n framework, no re-extraction, no missed keys, no comment thread archaeology.

What makes localized JSON string files integration-ready for an i18n pipeline.

A JSON string file with inconsistent key naming or paraphrased UI copy breaks the integration. These four properties prevent that.

UI terminology consistent across every exported JSON file

Component names, string keys, and product terminology stay consistent across every localized JSON export. Translation memory reuses your approved UI phrasing.

Faithful style for all UI strings

Faithful translation preserves button labels, validation messages, and UI copy exactly. No paraphrase — every string means what it said in the source.

String function and component context preserved

A form validation message or navigation label carries a specific interaction function. You pass the component context and audience, and Lara Translate localizes accordingly.

Localized JSON files for every market in one session

In any of 203 languages. Integration-ready without a manual formatting step.
