Developed a sophisticated translation application for Akeneo, leveraging Next.js and TypeScript for the front end and Node.js for the back end. This application utilizes Akeneo REST APIs to update product translations within the Akeneo PIM system seamlessly.

The app features a user-friendly interface that supports efficient product data management, including translating product information from a source locale to selected target locales. Additionally, the application includes robust error handling and optimization for scalability, ensuring smooth operation even with large volumes of product data.
This solution streamlines the translation process and integrates seamlessly with existing Akeneo workflows, enhancing overall efficiency and accuracy in product information management.
