Workflows

Since there's only one main command for translating, Langnostic can be easily integrated into many common workflows:

• Precommit hook: Run translation command before committing
• Post-PR: Run translation command after PR is created. Can be done via CI hooks (e.g. GitHub actions)
• Post-merging: Run translation command after PR is merged. Can be done via CI hooks (e.g. GitHub actions)
• Periodically: Run translation command periodically (e.g. every 1 hour or 1 day)
• Before release: Run translation command before deploying to staging and production
• Watch mode: Background runner that watches file changes and runs translation after a file is saved. Can be overkill, but can be helpful if there's a need to see the translated result during development

The translation command can be run anytime because it does the minimal work required to get the project into the fully-translated state.
