Crowdin Console Client (CLI)

Crowdin CLI is a command line tool that allows you to manage and synchronize localization resources with your Crowdin project:

Automate the process of updating your source files in your Crowdin project
Download translations from Crowdin and automatically save them in the correct locations
Upload all your existing translations to Crowdin in minutes

This is cross-platform and it runs in a terminal on Linux based and macOS operating systems or in Command Prompt on Windows. It’s also open-source and its source code available at GitHub.

Try CLI 5.0 Pre-Release 🚀

CLI 5.0 is a complete rewrite in TypeScript, powered by Bun: ~1 ms startup and a single self-contained binary for macOS, Linux, and Windows - no Java required. Same commands, crowdin.yml, and exit codes, plus JSON and TOON output for scripts and AI agents.

npm install -g @crowdin/cli@next

Try it and share feedback.
