fxa-content-server-l10n

What the repository holds

Fxa-content-server-l10n contains all translated and translatable strings for the Firefox Accounts servers, including the content server and the auth server. The README abbreviates this repository as L10N and the source Firefox Accounts repository as SOURCE, and the two are kept in sync through an automated extraction process rather than manual string edits.

How localization flows

String localization is managed in Mozilla's Pontoon platform, which pushes changes on its own schedule. A weekly cron job extracts strings from SOURCE and opens a pull request to merge them here, where a localization team member reviews confusing strings before merge. Once merged, Pontoon exposes the strings for translators, and a fresh copy of this repository is checked out on every deploy so live sites have the latest translations.

Contributing

Translators find their locale on the Pontoon Firefox Accounts project and follow the instructions there to submit translations; the repository itself is not the place to edit strings directly. The repository is covered by test and localization linter workflows and is released under the MPL-2.0 license. The August 2026 snapshot shows 29 stars and 52 forks, with more forks than stars reflecting downstream localization activity.

Editorial conclusion

The repository is MPL-2.0 licensed and records 29 stars with 52 forks as of August 2026. It holds the translated strings for Firefox Accounts and is kept in sync with source through a weekly automated extraction and Pontoon based translation.
