What it does

Translate subtitles using large language models with subtitle-translator-electron, a desktop application built with Electron and TypeScript.

When to use it

•When you need to translate video subtitles from one language to another for global content distribution
•When manually translating subtitles is time-consuming and prone to human error
•When you want to automate the subtitle translation process for a large volume of video content

Ready-to-paste prompt

Load a subtitle file named 'example.srt' and translate it from English to Spanish using the 'Translate' button

Heads up: Make sure you have Node.js (14 or higher) and npm installed on your system, as subtitle-translator-electron requires these to run
