Description

Tell us about your request

It's occasionally requested to be able to change translations in a production application without needing a server restart. The docs at https://vaadin.com/docs/latest/advanced/i18n-localization could at least mention possible approaches, such as using a database, and relevant considerations (maybe a cache layer so fetching every translatable text doesn't require a database call)
