Pontoon — Mozilla's Localization Platform
Pontoon is a translation management system used and developed by the
Mozilla localization community. It
specializes in open source localization that is driven by the community and
uses version-control systems for storing translations.
Installing Pontoon
If you are looking to host your own instance of Pontoon, there are several ways to do so.
To deploy Pontoon to Heroku without leaving your web browser, click the Deploy to
Heroku button below.
Alternatively, you can deploy to Heroku manually by following our
Deployment Documentation.
We don't have documentation for deploying to other platforms yet, so we recommend that
you read the previously linked documentation and adapt it for your needs.
If you only want to deploy a local instance of Pontoon, for development or
testing for example, see our
Developer Setup using Docker.
Please note that you should not deploy a production instance with Docker.
