Poedit is the best translations editor for translating apps and sites.
Write translations for any software or web site that uses Gettext for localization. Gettext is used widely, in many programming languages and many projects – from WordPress to many PHP projects, Django or pretty much anything on Linux.
Poedit is intentionally spartan so that the focus is on the translation you’re working on. Just you and the translation, no distractions.
