Libre Translate is a free and open source machine translation tool that provides translations using various translation services such as Google Translate, Yandex.Translate, and DeepL. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Libre Translate on Manjaro.
The first step is to ensure that your system is up-to-date and has all the necessary dependencies. Open your terminal window and update your system by running the following commands:
sudo pacman -Syu
Then install the dependencies:
sudo pacman -S git npm
Next, we will clone the Libre Translate repository to our system. Execute the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/uav4geo/LibreTranslate.git
Navigate into the project directory:
cd LibreTranslate
Then install the necessary NPM packages:
npm install
Once the installation is complete, build the application:

You're now ready to use Libre Translate! Simply open a browser window and navigate to localhost:5000 - this will open the Libre Translate web interface. You can now type or paste in the text you want to translate, select the source and target languages, and hit "Translate".
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Libre Translate on your Manjaro system. You can now use this powerful translation tool on your computer.
