Rosetta translation with Crowdin

Rosetta is a very lightweight, general-purpose internationalization library. The resource files of Rosetta are typically JS files, sometimes with JS code inside texts.

Note: Rosetta allows you to store all locales in one JS object. To translate your resource files with Crowdin you would have first separate your locales to one per language. JS code inside resource files is allowed.
