ReRune

Lokalise alternative for teams that want developer-first app localization.

ReRune is for teams evaluating localization platforms and looking for a focused workflow around app strings, developer sync, AI assistance, transparent usage, and supported OTA delivery.

Common challenge

Teams comparing localization platforms often want a different fit for app delivery, developer workflows, pricing, or product focus.

Best fit

Teams that want software localization centered on app delivery instead of a broad enterprise localization suite for every content type.

How ReRune helps

ReRune focuses on web, mobile, and cross-platform apps with CLI/API sync and supported OTA SDK paths. Compare it on that workflow rather than feature-for-feature parity with a broad enterprise suite.

Workflow

From app copy to release-ready localization.

ReRune connects translation management to the delivery path developers already use: dashboard work, AI assistance, CLI/API sync, and OTA updates where a supported SDK is installed.

Collect product text

Manage keys, languages, values, placeholders, dictionaries, metadata, and project context before translation work spreads across files and messages.

Translate with context

Use DeepL or OpenRouter-assisted translation flows with dictionaries and product context close to the text being reviewed.

Sync through developers

Use CLI/API workflows to move approved translations into repositories, CI/CD jobs, scripted release tasks, or custom platform integrations.

Deliver safely

Export platform formats or publish OTA updates for supported SDKs while keeping bundled app resources as the safe fallback.

Agent-assisted setup

Run one command. Your coding agent integrates ReRune.

Run the onboarding command from the root of your Git repository. The wizard detects the app and compatible coding agents already installed, then launches the agent you choose to move static UI text into localization, connect ReRune when cloud setup is selected, and validate the result.

Run inside your Git repository

$ curl -fsSL https://rerune.io/onboard.sh | sh

View current scriptView v1.2.6Changelog

The script runs locally. ReRune does not receive your source code or list of installed agents.

  1. Run the onboarding command

    Start it from the repository root. It stays in the terminal and detects the app, existing localization, and supported coding agents already installed.

  2. Confirm the detected setup

    Review the source locale, Git branch, and whether to connect ReRune cloud and add supported OTA delivery. Nothing changes until you confirm.

  3. The agent completes the integration

    The selected agent migrates user-facing strings into the app's localization system, connects ReRune when cloud setup is selected, adds supported OTA setup when requested, and runs the relevant validation.

Coverage

App-first does not mean mobile-only.

Start where localization creates release friction, then keep web, mobile, and cross-platform products in one shared workspace as your surface area grows.

Developer delivery

Sync through the CLI. Publish through OTA SDKs.

Use the ReRune CLI locally or in CI/CD to manage project translations, then deliver approved runtime updates through the SDK built for your app.

Companion CLI

Install the ReRune CLI

Use the ReRune CLI to sync, validate, and manage translations right from your terminal. Run syncs in CI/CD or locally whenever you need to push a new language.

Homebrew (macOS/Linux):

brew install BasalBit/tap/rerune
  • Downloadable builds for macOS, Linux, and Windows
  • Uses the API keys you generate in the dashboard
  • Fits scripted CI/CD workflows through CLI and API access

Connect the project

Create the project config and connect the repository to its ReRune workspace.

rerune pull

Pull approved updates

Bring current dashboard translations into the app or its build workflow.

rerune push

Push local changes

Send local translation updates back to ReRune for the team to manage and publish.

SDK directory

Use the current public SDK for each product surface.

Public ReRune SDKs for Flutter, Android, iOS, React, React Native, and Angular support runtime variant selection with Main and bundled fallback.

Questions

Questions teams ask before choosing a localization platform.

Contact the ReRune team

Share an idea, report a problem, or ask for help with ReRune.

Is ReRune a direct Lokalise clone?

No. ReRune overlaps in software localization needs, but it focuses on developer-first app localization, CLI/API sync, AI assistance, and supported OTA updates.

When should teams consider ReRune instead of Lokalise?

Consider ReRune when your main localization problem is app text, developer sync, release coordination, and runtime updates rather than a broad enterprise content localization program.

Is ReRune a full enterprise suite replacement?

ReRune focuses on software and app localization workflows for product and engineering teams. It does not aim to cover every enterprise content, agency, or language-service workflow.
