-**Product UI**: community-driven translation through [Crowdin](https://docs.gitlab.com/development/i18n/), supported by the [GitLab String Search](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/localization/gitlab-string-search) tool and [Crowdin Automation](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/localization/crowdin-automation) scripts.
## Iteration process
We start our iteration on a Tuesday. We release throughout the iteration. Iterations are 2 weeks long. See our [Localization engineering iterations here](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-com/localization/-/cadences/).
We use two boards to track engineering work:
-[By Assignee](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-com/localization/-/boards/9140637): shows all work items with `~"L10n-engineering"` label, grouped by team member
-[By Status](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-com/localization/-/boards/11195951): shows workflow progression through Refinement -> Ready for development -> In dev -> In review -> Complete
## Review workflow
### Review workflow
The process of reviewing merge requests by the Localization Engineering team aligns with the GitLab [Code Review Guidelines](https://docs.gitlab.com/development/code_review/).
