StringsCatalogKit & strings_catalog_tool

A library and command-line tool to examine and modify the Xcode Strings Catalog files, providing additional functionality not all currently available in Xcode 16 or xcodebuild.

Getting Started

strings_catalog_tool simplifies working with Xcode Strings Catalog files by offering features such as listing language keys, displaying all available languages, and removing translations for a specific language.

Example Usage

To list all base language keys in your Strings Catalog, call:
