Would be nice to support languages other than English. After supporting translatable strings and formatting we can set it up so it's easy for non-technical contributors to add translations to the app.

Any idea on lib you wanna use? I can setup the boilerplate if you wanna use react-intl.

I just started reading i18next docs, is react-intl better?

I dunno. I've only used react-intl. Using react-intl with extract-react-intl-messages is pretty nice. Allows you to define the messages close to where they are used and have all the messages extracted into one file per locale. Having only one file per locale makes it pretty easy for non-technical people to add translations.

I'll try and take a look at i18next today or tomorrow.

any of those two is fine imo, would be nice to set up transifex for translations like in Damus
