About Framer Localization Sync
A complete workflow for managing translations in Framer.
This plugin lets you export your project’s localization strings to Excel (.xlsx) or XLIFF 1.2 (.xlf) — formats commonly used by translators, agencies, and localization platforms like Lokalise. When translations are ready, simply re-import the file and your Framer project updates instantly.
No manual copying, no tracking changes, no risk of breaking your localization structure.
