: Will i18next affect SEO? What about screen readers? I'm considering using i18next for translating text. But then it suddenly struck me; If labels / text is retrieved through javascript, won't

@Margaret670

From my knowledge with a very close Blind friend who uses a Mac for his screen reader, the iOS and OS X is very good at reading text on a website. As for images, you can forget it. The program will tell him there is an image on it, but it can not read text or what the image is about.

Also, he and a lot of people scrap a webpage for the reading of text only who is blind.
