Why

The main reason to give back life again to this tool is that at work we make pretty good use in for extracting and storing translation messages. After according to port our projects to TypeScript, we've realized that react-int-cra did not support the TypeScript syntax. Even the available options offered the possibility to add babel plugins, it did not work with the last versions of babel either. Of course, the project had been deprecated.

The author suggests to change to another library, but for now, we're more focused on evolving our product. No time for changing models in the toolchain. So after observing how the library works, we found easier to update it and include the TypeScript support than using a new instrument.

So now you're aware why don't expect nothing too fancy. It is just the same old fashion behavior updated to babel 7. And TypeScript support.

Please, refer to the original repository if you want to know more about suggested alternatives.
