Intl.Net
A ResX Globalization alternative using JSON instead of bulky XML.
Generates strongly-typed resource classes for looking up localized strings.
Usage
Install the Intl.Net.ResourceGenerator and Intl.Net.ResourceManager packages in your resource project:
Make sure to copy your JSON resource files to your output directory and mark them as EmbeddedResource
<EmbeddedResource Include="Localization.json">
<CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
</EmbeddedResource>For a list of configurable options, as well as supported i18n providers that fetch your translations from a remote API, please see the wiki pages.
Performance
Currently, Intl.Net is just as fast as the Resx ResourceManager shipped with dotnet itself. In cases where trying to get a non-existing key, it is even significantly faster.

TypealizR - A source generator doing the same thing for .resx files. It's pretty much a modern Globalization alternative
